[Bug 206939] New: patch for flash requires user input (due to annoying license agreement)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206939 Summary: patch for flash requires user input (due to annoying license agreement) Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: admin@fph.physik.uni-karlsruhe.de QAContact: qa@suse.de There has been an patch release for flash player 7 on 14. Sept. 2006 (flash-player-7.0.68.0-1.2). When trying to install this patch with rug, I am asked to accept the license agreement. Since I have to maintain pool of desktop PCs, I'd be interested to install the updates unattended. With the appearance of this flash player patch, "rug up" stops now asking for a keystroke. Could this patch be reshipped without a license confirmation? (When answering "no" to the license, no software at all installed, despite a lot of other pending updates.) -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206939 ------- Comment #2 from admin@fph.physik.uni-karlsruhe.de 2006-09-20 07:15 MST ------- Thank you for your quick response! Unfortunately, it seems that both -y and --no-confirmation is not properly implemented: 1. # rug up --no-confirmation ERROR: '--no-confirmation' is not a valid catalog. # 2. # rug up -y this leads again to the license text and needs keyboard input Can I use another rug command to update installed packages? (I do not have any bundles installed). My setup is that I have two ZYPP archives, one containing the SuSE-10.1-DVD and one for the upgrades. Don't hesitate asking me if you need further ZMD/rug infos.

(I tried each option alone and both combined.) When I upgrade flash-player with rpm -U flash-player I'm not asked for a license confirmation. I can use this as a work-around, but this needs manual configuration and record-keeping. -- Achim -- 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.
