I understand that this logic is applied to view the 'Needed Patches" drop down list criteria. However there is NO mechanism for installing Optional Patches as listed by the drop down box of "All Patches" If we can call a list of 'Optional Patches" why cant we select them and install them. If I change patch drop down to "All Patches and manually select some of the Optional Patches and run a manual dependency check, all is o.k. When I select accept, my optional patch selection is ignored and not installed. If optional patches can never be installed, why do we provide the logic to view them in the first instance. If Optional patches can never be installed we must remove the logic that exists to create the list in the first instance dont you agree? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
