On a pure oficial tumbluweed (no extra repos) "zypper dup" is all you want.
The moment we start mixing repos (be it a devel, packman or vlc one) we have to take extra care, and the "zypper dup ---no-allow-vendor-change" is the safe choice.
I really want a user interface where I can decently go and mark certain packages as taboo or add them to an update or remove them when they are obsolete or not remove them yet even though they may be obsolete now. Because of that, I always end up in YaST and doing "update all packages if newer version is available".
You should rather do "update unconditionally". It is equivalent to zypper dup.
No, that would update all packages in my system even if they do not actually have an update, IIRC. That only causes useless downloads and wasted time.
I would really appreciate if there was an easy, obvious way to do the best and safest choice, i.e. "zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change" via YaST.
Se above, that's it.
No, it's not. It's way more work to do for one thing.
That's IMHO the biggest missing thing in TW nowadays (and almost always was in Factory - though I think a very long time ago the "Factory-Update" module in YaST did something like that).
There are more chances of yast crashing than zypper crashing.
Sure, but it's very very rare that it doesn't run through without issue, esp. on TW - actually, I can't remember having any issue at all since TW started (I sometimes did with Factory). On Leap, I do zypper dup for a new version and the YaST variant(s) for in between and I never had an issue there with that.
