I have a question regarding an updater applet for the GNOME variant. I know that KDE has an updater applet (not the PackageKit one), which provides a list of upgrades based on the repo priorities etc. Is there any such thing for GNOME? The PackageKit version shows dependency issues, as I have several OBS repos (GNOME: STABLE, Evolution, GNOME:Apps etc).
I'd appreciate some assistance on this.

The GNOME updater (gpk-update-icon) uses libzypp to resolve dependencies in the same manner as YaST, zypper and the KDE updater with the zypp backend. You should get the same results using the updater as manually running zypper to install patches - "sudo zypper up -t patch". If you don't could you file a bug on that. If you do get dependency issues with zypper you would need to look into the specific problems - with multiple repos and packages installed from them, you can get valid dependency issues. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
