does yast2 update packages like php w/online updates?
When I run yast2, it will automatically install security updates if I wish. That's great. I've noticed that the version of php installed on my SuSE PPC 7.3 is 4.0.6, and that there's a security problem in 4.0.6 that could be fixed by upgrading to PHP 4.1.2 I ran yast2 and didn't see anything about PHP 4.1.2. I don't know if this is something that will eventually be put in the update list so I can get it via yast2, or is it not the sort of thing that ever shows up? In other words, am I on my own to update PHP? I really like the automatic update functionality, and I don't want to "break" it by going in and changing configuration or installation stuff on my own. I'm pretty new to SuSE and I've found that suseconfig keeps a checksum so I have to be careful about what config files I touch. Is there any similar warning about yast2 and online updates? ===== Tom Arnold Summit Media Partners Visit our web site at http://www.summitmediapartners.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
