In theory the XML.GZ patch updates should call for .DRPM files - only problem is the Installation program still retains .RPM calls for files and other repositories have XML.GZ which call for .DRPM. As to what repositories actually contains the actual .RPM or .DRPM that is called for is anyone’s guess...I would strongly suggest you revert all repositories back to .RPM files for prior versions to 12.1 or when the installation media calls and contains .RPM files ceased. BTW What is the technical reason/benefit for retrospectively changing file formats to .DRPM..I can understand there must be a technical reason to change new versions to a .DRPM file but I cannot understand why this has been made retrospective to prior versions??????????? I think the best solution is to revert and back out of the retrospective changes and put them all back to .RPM's ..Sure leave new installation programs that contain .DRPM file alone but back this retrospective change out... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
