I've been using locks for years, but only for what I consider to be specific single packages. Man page, --help and Google all fail to describe in manner I can understand how to lock all packages containing a string. Is this the default? Is all I need to lock all kdebase4 packages simply 'zypper al kdebase4'? Or is it 'zypper al -t pattern kdebase4'? I've currently applied the latter (correct?), but I think the man page could use some clarification. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
