Further A:Bar contains Package2 which I want to install as well. So we have the following situation: 1. Project A:Foo and A:Bar share the same key and therefore currently have the same vendor. 2. I want Package1 _only_ from A:Foo since the version in A:Bar is most times broken. 3. I also need to add Project A:Bar since it contains Package2 which I want to install as well. So how am I supposed to force zypp now to get Package1 only from A:Foo and not to constantly switch to the broken versions in A:Bar (which is newer but broken)? I honestly fail to see why it should be taken to the mailing lists and what there is to discuss since it is currently impossible and therefore obviously broken. And no, IMHO, writing people an email to ask them to please use separate vendors is no option since there are too many repos on OBS and the problem can arise out of nowhere as soon as someone adds some package somewhere. Also this problem would not exist if you would simply use unique vendors per repository. So, with all due respect, until you can come up with a solution for the above usecase _on the public OBS_ I dare to say that either the implementation or the configuration currently is broken and needs to be fixed. -- 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.
