Hi,
a very simple question about zypp multiarch handling. How does zypp deal with the following situations:
1) A package is available in the base installation source for both x86_64 and i586, and in the update repo there is just an i586 package. The x86_64 package is currently installed and the i586 package in the update repo has a higher version number.
Does it "upgrade" (wrt. the version) resp. "downgrade" (wrt. the architecture)? Or will it keep the installed package?
zypp does not change the architecture of an installed package. When checking for 'best' (or 'better') package - architecture is compared first - then edition (epoch, version, release)
2) Quite the same as 1), but during a system upgrade: Any differences in this respect between a system upgrade and an online update?
Yes. System upgrade might change (upgrade) the architecture of a package. Klaus --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
