I just tried to install as many packages as possible and found something very annoying: Conflicts are only shown one at a time. You can not solve several conflicts at a time like before.
Should I file a bug or is this intended behaviour?
Please file a bug,

I have a similar question. I chose to install xmms with yast sw (beta8) - apparently xmms depends on xmms-lib which is also installed. This is all very nice - except in earlier versions of SL you would be informed of dependencies before they're installed - enabling you to change your mind - or at least know what's going on before it's too late. Is this behaviour a bug or is it intended? - that dependencies are installed automatically without "consulting" the user beforehand. I prefer the old way. Though I'm aware that some users panic when yast asks them any questions whatsoever. Of course in the xmms case it's not important - but if I (or some other user) were to by accident install some GNOME-package and thus installaing 100s of megs of dependencies without warning it would be a problem. cb400f
