If during installation of openSUSE I choose to perform an online update, yast software management is shown instead of yast online update.
There are several other issues there as well. The detailed steps with their problems are:
1. Choose to perform an online update during system installation.
2. Problem: Yast software management shows up (instead of online update).
There's no difference in online update, comparing to software management, so there's not a problem here.
Problem: There are no patches visible to deselect. The user is presented with > a blank list. Essentially, the user is forced to update everything. Selecting "Installation summary" in a dropdown shows several packages (half of them related to package management, the other half is fetchmsfonts, poppler, manual, flash, etc...). Problem: Nowhere it says that only package management stack (plus a random selection of packages) is going to be updated now.
Well, yes, only package management stack should be updated for the first time, if anything other is updated as well, it may be a problem. Please attach YaST log files (http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST)
3. Upon clicking accept, after some packages are installed, the dialogs shows up: "Packages for package management were updated. Finishing and restarting now." Problem: This message is really unclear about what exactly is restarting, which could very well be the computer.
But it wasn't computer, was it? ;-) Seriously, you're the first one to complain here, and the message is there for years. OK, maybe it should explicitly say that YaST is being restarted (but there are people who does not know YaST is being that installation tool...)
4. After that the software management shows up again (instead of online update). Problem: And again, there is no way to deselect the specific patches.
The patches probably should be able to deselect... y2log could help.
5. After everything is installed and the system is booted to KDE4, the online updater in the tray says that "fetchmsfonts" patch is going to be installed. However, the same patch (with the fonts) was installed during the very first update (together with the package management stack patches).
Note sure if these require separate bug reports, it looks like a "one big issue" to me.
The problem with fetchmsfonts looks strange... let's see what the logs say. -- 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.
