[Bug 513007] New: Optional Packages are installed by default
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=513007 Summary: Optional Packages are installed by default Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: m.moeller@opensuse.org QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.4) Gecko/2008103100 SUSE/3.0.4-4.6 Firefox/3.0.4 'zypper patch' seems to distinguish between 'security', 'recommended' and 'optional'. I understand that 'recommended' packages are installed, by default but 'optional' packages like fetchmsttfonts are also installed during 'zypper patch'. This is an unwanted behaviour as these packages should really be kept optional (may also be a licensing issue, at least with msttf). Best Regards Marcus Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. zypper patch Actual Results: optional packages are installed Expected Results: optional packages won't be installed -- 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.

'zypper patch' will only _update_ fetchmsttfonts, not install it. That is, it must have been already installed in your case. Or wasn't it? -- 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.
