Feature changed by: Thomas Göttlicher (tgoettlicher) Feature #308896, revision 6 Title: Add option to automatic update to install all updates, not just patches openSUSE Distribution: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Tim Edwards (tk83) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The Automatic Update configuration configurable through YAST->Online Update Configuration currently only installs patch updates. An option should be added to install all updates (ie. this would run 'zypper up' without the '-t patches' option). (This new option should be off by default to avoid changing the current behaviour too much.) Discussion: #1: Thomas Schmidt (digitaltomm) (2010-12-09 11:47:36) Afaik there is an option for this in the updater applet. + #2: Thomas Göttlicher (tgoettlicher) (2010-12-09 11:59:56) (reply to + #1) + kupdateapplet's zypp backend had an option to install package updates in the past. + I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to automatically install each and + every version update. Usually you install a system and only update it + if it's needed e.g. for security reasons. These updates are provided by + patches. If you always want to have the latest version installed on + your system you might want to use openSUSE Factory. But I would not + recommend this for a productive system. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308896
