Zypper supports heaps, but no "heaps" are defined, AFAIK.
No, see this snippet from the /etc/zypp/zypp.conf file:
## DownloadInHeaps, Similar to DownloadInAdvance, but try to split ## the transaction into heaps, where at the end of ## each heap a consistent system state is reached.
So if you need to update some core package (e.g. glibc) then the result might be that you need to update *all* packages at once because you might not be able to split the package updates into consistent heaps.
But the core problem is that libzypp does not implement the "DownloadInHeaps" mode fully, currently is supports only a single heap which means it behaves just like the "DownloadInAdvance" mode.
That's why I suggest ## DownloadAsNeeded Alternating download and install. Packages are ## cached just to avid CD/DVD hopping. This is the ## traditional behaviour. -- My definition of an expert in any field is a person who knows enough about what's really going on to be scared. P. J.
