[Bug 413233] New: zypper: read package list from file
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=413233 Summary: zypper: read package list from file Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: jkupec@novell.com ReportedBy: tgoettlicher@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Passing the names of the packages for installation to zypper via commandline option has its limits. For example kdesu, used by the updater applet, obviously fails to run a command with a lenght of ~1000 chars. It would be nice if zypper could read a list of patches/packages from a file. -- 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.

Perhaps a xml file would provide this functionality. -- 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.

I've solved the problem using xargs. Jano, I think reading packages from a file isn't needed anymore for the updater applet as xargs works. -- 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.
