Feature changed by: Mário Castanheira (SpeccyMan) Feature #313441, revision 7 Title: Easy Upgrade openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Mário Castanheira (speccyman) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: An easy way to allow users to make upgrades (e.g.: changing from version 12.1 to version 12.2) as easy as they can in Ubuntu. - Something like one-click, instead of having to deal whit the work of - disable and update of the repositories manually. + Something like a notification whit a button to perform the upgrade whit + just one-click, instead of having to deal whit the work of manually + disable all of the repositories, update them manually and then make a + "zypper dup" . Would be good if all this would be automatic (maybe even integrated it in Apper or in the new Software Center). Use Case: User gets notified that there's a new version of opensuse available and it is asked if he wishes to upgrade. If he selects "upgrade" the system should ask for permissions and then start upgrading itself. (pretty much like in ubuntu). Nothing else required! Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: The benefit for the user is that this feature will encourage users to keep their distro in it's lastest version, even if they don't understand much about computers! This will bring them a greater experience in opensuse since they will have access to stable and newest features and also many other improvements. It's also because it's something all Ubuntu users keep saying it's one of their loved features. Discussion: #1: Sławomir Lach (lachu) (2012-05-02 22:04:14) As I remember, there exist a Yast module to do that. #2: Mário Castanheira (speccyman) (2012-05-02 23:35:32) (reply to #1) well, if you're referring to YaST Online Update (YOU), as far has i know, it can't do upgrades unless you manually deactivate some of your repos and update others to match the repos of the new version. Only then you can upgrade. Those manual changes is what this feature is trying to avoid :) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313441
