[opensuse-factory] zypper activity before downloading
by Volker Kuhlmann 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

When running a zypper dup, the questions for dependency resolution and for the licenses happen pretty quickly (< 30s), but what is it doing at 100% CPU for 10-15min(!) before starting to download the first package?

[opensuse-factory] Zypper behaviour - install/update as many packages as possible?
by Alex 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Hello, a few question concerning the new shiny zypper. Definitely, everything has been pretty fast since the new version has been introduced in factory. I begin to like it better than any other package management system I have tried for SUSE over the years. However, some strange things remain for me: 1. When doing a factory update, zypper always insists on updating a few packages which definitely are already installed in the newest version. E.g. for bash or perl-base (and quite a few … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] YaST Installer proposal
by Bryen 03 Mar '08

03 Mar '08

Yesterday I had a call from a colleague who was installing SLES 10 to a server with 1.9TB partition.
