Feature changed by: Denny Beyer (lumnis) Feature #310233, revision 5 Title: skip repo update when installing packages with zypper openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Denny Beyer (lumnis) Description: When installing a new package with zypper etc. everytime you run zypper, repos get updated and the user has to wait. Because a general user needs several extra repos, this waiting time always seems to be too long. Why not running 'zypper ref' as a low priority task after startup/time intervall has passed and give the used immidiate access to install a software package?

Because a general user needs several extra repo No he does not.
#2: Denny Beyer (lumnis) (2010-07-25 16:20:28) (reply to #1) and you are THE general user to have the worlds wisdom to judge that .... why don't you leave that decision up to openfate users to vote? #3: Ned Ulbricht (ned_ulbricht) (2010-07-25 18:13:07) You don't want someone unknowingly installing a vulnerable package after a security update has been released. + #4: Denny Beyer (lumnis) (2010-07-25 22:44:32) (reply to #3) + Please explain, I don't see any difference it would make to weather I + wait for zypper or not. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310233
