AFAIK, there is no such feature, and really I fail to see the need of it.
I do. When I am asked for example to give a try to KDE from Factory to see if a particular bug has already been fixed there, I would like to be able to return to the initial state of things when I am done with the testing, as I don't want to keep using a snapshot of Factory's KDE forever and I also don't want to have to update my KDE every week (otherwise I'd be using Factory as my distribution in the first place.) Now I'm not saying it is easy to implement. I don't know enough about packaging in general to comment on that. But that would certainly be a useful feature to have. Users would be more willing to help us with testing specific repositories if they knew they can easily go back to their initial system state afterwards. -- Jean Delvare Suse L3 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
