Anyway, the error message tells that the repositories metadata on the server have changed. Most probably because new packages and/or patches are available. Those new metadata have to be downloaded, but this can not be done as 'ordinary' user. @Peter: Until the applet does it automatically, you had to login as 'root' and call 'zypper refresh' to update the metadata. This should make the error disappear, but it does not solve the taboo-patch-problem. @Thomas: It looks like the applet does not invoke zypper as 'root'. This is nothing lzypper/libzypp can fix. Maybe you can help here? -- 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.
