No, it is locked to a package on a repo. I have not experienced nor can I find documentation or testing results that indicate anything other than a "package on a repo". And "package" is optional:
# zypper al --help addlock (al) [options] <packagename> ...
Add a package lock. Specify packages to lock by exact name or by a glob pattern using '*' and '?' wildcard characters.
Command options: -r, --repo <alias|#|URI> Restrict the lock to the specified repository. -t, --type <type> Type of package (package, patch, pattern, product). Default: package.
I have been using this for > two years and "it works".

Yes, they are much different puppies. I did use YaST but zypper is *so* much more convenient and doesn't require mouse,.... -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
