If this means it kills open ssh connections when installing the update, please don't do it. That would be even worse than killing the connection on a distribution upgrade.
Usually. On the other hand, our regular updates usually do not change APIs so interrupted update is IMHO less likely to render the system unusable.
I propose the following text:
I'm fine with your suggestion, although I would probably modify it slightly (mostly because I dislike screen): When upgrading from openSUSE 12.1 (or older), open SSH connections will be closed when the new openssh package is upgraded. If you are upgrading with "zypper dup" over SSH, run "zypper dup" inside a resumable terminal multiplexer (e.g. "screen" or "tmux") so that you can re-connect easily, or at least immune to connection loss (e.g. via "nohup"). -- 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.
