[Bug 544466] New: kupdateapplet don't consider locked packages and shows patches on every start
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=544466 Summary: kupdateapplet don't consider locked packages and shows patches on every start Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE3 AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: peter-mailbox@web.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Gecko/2009060200 Firefox/3.0.11 I locked a package in YaST's software management ('Protected -- do not modify') to prevent an update of it (zypper shows that the package is really locked). But kupdateapplet don't consider the lock and recommends every start to update the package with a new patch. I also tried to lock the patch itself with YaST Online Update ('Taboo – never install'), but it also fails. This is quite annoying, any idea? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. YaST software management: lock package 2. YOU: lock patzch (taboo) 3. kupdateapplet search for patches Actual Results: kupdateapplet don't consider the lock and recommends every start to update the package with a new patch Expected Results: kupdateapplet should not show patches for locked packages -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I had the following packages installed: - kde4-kupdateapplet-0.8.34-2.1 - kde4-kupdateapplet-packagekit-0.8.34-2.1 I now installed also kde4-kupdateapplet-zypp-0.8.34-2.1 and changed the backend in the configuration of kupdateapplet to ZYpp-Modul (instead of PackageKit-Modul). But then I have troubles when I use my regular user (message like "applet error: ... execute as root 'zypper refresh'" appears and nothing works) and with user root it's the same problem as with PackageKit-Modul. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Anyway, the error message tells that the repositories metadata on the server have changed. Most probably because new packages and/or patches are available. Those new metadata have to be downloaded, but this can not be done as 'ordinary' user. @Peter: Until the applet does it automatically, you had to login as 'root' and call 'zypper refresh' to update the metadata. This should make the error disappear, but it does not solve the taboo-patch-problem. @Thomas: It looks like the applet does not invoke zypper as 'root'. This is nothing lzypper/libzypp can fix. Maybe you can help here? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

When I use the PackageKit-Modul, I have to login as root or give the root password when I start to install the patches and then I have the taboo-patch-problem. When I use the ZYpp-Modul, it's not possible to use a normal user (then I have the "applet error") and when I login as root, it's then the taboo-patch-problem. So the result is, it's possible for me to install patches but the taboo-patch-problem still persists. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But from your report it seems the packagekit backend has the same problem. So this should be fixed at the zypp implementation for the packagekit. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As I understand, this means that each time a new version appears in the update repository, the user must decide whether to accept the update even if s/he refused the previous version update. Maybe this is good enough because a new update might not have a problem that was present in a previous update. It might be a good idea to add an option to update applet GUI to let some updates be disabled (i. e. marked as taboo), so that the user does not have to figure out that s/he has to mark the update as taboo in Yast Online Update. (In case of critical updates, the applet might give some warning dialog asking whether you really want to block the update.) -- 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.
