Let me add
* Updates
- Provide a 'compute package updates' function (using sat-solver 'update_system' mode) in all zypp applications (qt, ncurses, gtk, zypper). Replacing the current loop-over-pool-finding-'newer'-packages functionality.
Libzypp supports this now:
/** * Update to the newest package * * Install the newest version of your installed packages as * far as possible. This means a newer package will NOT be * installed if it generates dependency problems. * So the user will not get an error message. * **/ void doUpdate( );
Nice to have, thanks. Nevertheless, is it able to limit the set of packages going to be updated somehow? As we've been talking about it on this mailing-list recently, users often want to: * update only $add_your_favorite_repository_here packages * update only the listed packages (and their dependencies) * update all packages (maximum we can do) Is that doUpdate function able to handle such requirements?
