[Bug 240559] New: Intentional downgrade to an older SW-version is not recognized by actualizing program
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=240559 Summary: Intentional downgrade to an older SW-version is not recognized by actualizing program Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Maintenance AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de QAContact: qa@suse.de I recently downgraded guile because of an incompatibility of guile and TeXmacs. Now the on-desktop actualizing program keeps telling me I should upgrade guile because the version I installed is 1.6.X whereas the initial openSuSE 10.2 version is 1.8.x. Because the build date of my version is significantly more recent than the build date of the SuSE package this should not happen IMHO. In YaST the package is marked with a lock, the same should happen in the desktop upgrader software. Just my 2 cents here ... Imagine SuSE would downgrade a package version for some good reason and all customers out there would revert the change due to such a behaviour of the installer.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=240559 ------- Comment #2 from dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de 2007-02-08 12:45 MST ------- I am using KDE as of openSuSE 10.2. It is part of the KDE Menu-bar. I use it, as it comes, it is the so called "Software-Aktualisierungsfunktion", and it tells me "Software verfügbar für Aktualisierung": guile - GNU's ubiquitous intelligent Languate for Extension Catalog:20070128-182533 Type Package I assume it is zmd that is running. I had to downgrade this because SuSE supplied TeXmacs dysfunctional with openSuSE 10.2 (does not work with guile 1.8. My package is shown as "don't touch" in YaST, this is what I would expect from ZMD. It makes no sense at all to replace intentionally modified packages - if a package is marked as "hand-installed" zmd should keep it's fingers off, as well - IMHO.

I don't know why you get conflicts, but I dont't know either where are you installing the packages from. If you installed packages from other sources, then the solver has to tell you about conflicts. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
