I think PackageKit can't be much of a help here, because IMHO, it will not be
ready for consumption for 11.0 -- ready for thorough testing and evaluation
yes, but nothing more.
We should be able to feed zypper with a long list of packages. Whether it's XML
or simply a plain text (or yaml?) is actually not important.
We don't use zypper update, because the possibility to deselect packages from
the list of updates. We could use update for case in which the complete list is
not altered, but this would still leave out corner cases, where someone
deselects one critical package from a Factory update.
But I still don't get why there haven't been any updates at all. I actually ran
test with 1000 and more packages to update. And even when one package name was
cut in the middle it simply said that this package doesn't exist and went on
with the other 1300-odd packages. Maybe there was something else wrong (Duncan
played with his libzypp, didn't he :-) ).
If it happens again there should be some logs provided.
