I just installed 11.2 rc2 from gnome liveCD, then immediately ran
'zypper dup'. It installed over 1GB of new software, including 184MB
worth of OpenOffice.org help files in six languages I don't speak.

Why doesn't 'zypper dup' stick to distribution upgrades? Instead it
seems to install the union of the favorite packages of every SUSE
developer, or some such.

Because the livecd distribution is not as complete as it can be. OpenOffice
package recommends things and zypper upgrades your distribution to complete
it.
