I've been running Mandriva devel (Cooker) for several years. Last week I installed factory from ftp. Now I want to update. This was a simple 2 step process in Cooker: 1-urpmi-update -a; 2-urpmi --auto-select. The options in YaST Control Center don't seem to have an equivalent, and looking on http://en.opensuse.org/ doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere. Can someone please point me to instructions for how this is done in factory?
YaST -> System Update
This fails. As soon as the window opens it quietly closes itself without asking any questions or doing anything, as do most objects in YaST since my attempted update two days ago. Now I see on the factory mirrors libzypp, yast2 & y2pmsh (but not liby2util) have apparently been rebuilt. Isn't there some less cumbersome way to get them than to download manually and run rpm -Uvh or reinstall from scratch yet again? -- "Blessed are they whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord."
