* the package manager in beta4 will only have reduced functionality
Can you elaborate? Will "yast2 sw_single" be able to add and remove packages and resolve dependencies?
If it does not, I'm not shipping beta4 ;-) It will allow adding and removing of single packages but maybe not adding of a complete "selection". Most of the "filters" you have on the left will not work in beta4 - they will only work again with beta5. Resolving has to work.
We're still working on the integration of "libzypp" into our tree and hope to have both update and new installation working.
Together with libzypp, we get the zmd daemon, the rug command line interface, the zen-updater, zen-remover, zen-installer packages. They all handle YUM sources and additionally Zenworks servers as installation sources.
Is there some documentation that explains zen-updater and what to use instead of susewatcher? - and how to ;-)
We'll add infos and pointers to the release notes. If you have anything to add or need, please file a bugreport against the component "Release Notes" of SUSE Linux 10.1, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
