@Thomas: 'update if newer version is available' could be easily improved to match 'zypper up'. With this being done, Tony could complete the update without leaving YaST ;)
In particular, the first bootup of the newly version-upgraded system (which doesn't use the same inittab or whatever than all later bootups, but, unlike the part of the update which is run from the DVD system, has a working Internet connection) might propose (from a YaST window maybe, opened at "Installation Summary" to allow user tweaks, and with the usual [ Cancel ] [ Accept ] at bottom) to update all packages for which a new version is available. This would allow upgrading from other repositories than the main DVD disk image, and it would make this "update packages" function of YaST more discoverable. BTW, that "zypper up" job launched shortly after comment #4 is still running: package 1094 of 2016, kernel-desktop-debuginfo. I'll leave it running later today when I go to the snackbar, it seems to work quite well unattended. But YaST+Qt is better-looking. -- 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.
