AFAIK package manager related updates should always be installed first and then restart YOU or opensuse-updater.

...

From user perspective a "package manager restart" is additional effort to run yet another update (service interruption), having this said we like to avoid

Yes and no - I wouldn't be a problem to install all updates related to update stack with package manager stack to use always newest update stack. this flag if the changes are not critical for update stack operations. I will not close this bug right now, a engineer from zypp/yast should make sure that Marcus and I have not missed a critical change. A obvious example would be a change in the way data is provided like changing sort order from package names to category or vice versa. -- 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.

Will the restart be enforced in this case? Or not because the newest patch doesn't require it and obsoletes the older patches? (I can't test it because I usually install the patches ASAP ;-) PS: Merry Christmas! -- 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.

=" it will chose newest packages (hence you would e.g. get newest libzypp) and

"package manager" patches are chosen first, due requirements "version-release the not marked patch is no longer needed while it is not installed "grey checkmark" in YaST Online Update qt-GUI. restart will be enforced when at least one "package manager" type patch is available. -- 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.
