I'm not sure, if this is bug or feature... After few days, update applet (TW, KDE) says there are 6843 new updates (TeX, R, ... ;-). When I click to "Install updates" error "Too many packages to process (6843/5200)" appears. Zypper handles it well. Is it worth of bug report? To b.o.o?

Since Tumbleweed must be updated with 'zypper dup', and these graphical frontends do not do the equivalent of a 'zypper dup', there is nothing to worry about.

Yes and no. :-) Of course, I do update my TW with 'zypper dup', but this situation can easily happen on Leap also (well, as soon as You have TeX...:-). In such case, for some people it can be an issue... -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/ https://trapa.cz/

This is different case, IMHO.

FWIW, I do have texlive installed since well over a decade, and never had such an error on the regular openSUSE (now Leap) releases. TBH, I don't even remember the last time there was a full texlive update, if there ever was one... ;-)

On TW I see texlive updates too often, IMHO. ;-)

I suppose it can happen if you install really lots of things (including texlive) from additional repos, but that should rather be the (rare) exception than the norm.

Might be. But anyway, why is there such a limit? -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/

Maybe libsolv used all its 32 bit integers up already? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Since Tumbleweed must be updated with 'zypper dup', and these graphical frontends do not do the equivalent of a 'zypper dup', there is nothing to worry about.

Consequently, PackageKit and it's clients should be banned from TW repositories.

Rather these clients should utilize available information which command to use during update. zypper knows that "dup" is preferred over "up" and displays warning; so these clients could use the same information and chose "dup" automatically. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Hi all, while the linked issue has been resolved, the limitation is still in place — the `pkcon -d update` against recent full rebuild produces following output: $ pkcon -d update Getting updates [=========================] Finished [=========================] Updating packages [=========================] Refreshing software list [=========================] Finished [=========================] Fatal error: Too many packages to process (5530/5200) Can we address it by applying an https://github.com/hughsie/PackageKit/commit/ff0181389dc281effbd274f6e1ae01e... one-liner from upstream? I'll don't have time to make a request myself at the moment, but maybe someone else has. Thank you in advance. On Wed, Jan 17, 2018 at 3:33 PM Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar wrote:

Looking for people to contirbute code - it's not that the idea has not been thought of yet
