If so then simply suggesting on packman list to provide such a file with configured priority. The docs could also be updated to include the highly recommended zypper dup --from packman once step.
And that's the wrong (some might even count it as a dangerous) suggestion! Don't use dup in this case as you would replace any package of your system with the version available at the packman side. While the majority only needs a quite small subset to get full multimedia support for example flying.
Well, many of the guides and the advice we give are to do just that (dup --from packman), or in yast, click on the "switch system packages to this repository" link.
I do it myself. But it is true, it is problematic, because, for instance, it replaces Lazarus with an older version. So I have to undo a few changes.

Shouldn't most noobs use Yast gui and ncurses?
From there they will learn about priority. Setting packages to do not modify. Changing vendors. Etc..etc..etc..
Once they understand Yast they can tackle using zypper. It's a process. Cheers! Roman ICQ: 551368250 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
