[opensuse-factory] Snapshot archive or other fallback options?
My question is probably a FAQ question: Are there any public Tumbleweed snapshot archives? If not, are there any plans for this? (For a small amount of packages I can easily make my own archive with the option "keeppackages=1" in a repository (*.repo) file. I do this for instance for Kernel packages from Kernel:stable repository. If the newest Kernel causes some problems (which is very seldom), I can manually downgrade to an older version (together with the older kernel-source package), re-install the NVidia driver and other additional modules and reboot. But with thousands of installed packages this is impracticable.)

Hi, For kernel there is config option in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf called multiversion which allows to get more than one kernel installed, and I think its on by default: https://doc.opensuse.org/projects/libzypp/HEAD/group__ZyppConfig.html Regards, Luiz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

My private Kernel archive was only meant as an example.
