If that could be solved, I think upgrades via apt would ROCK. I don't understand what can't be taken care of at rpm installation time that /is/ taken care of by installing from the media. If I knew what it was, I could take care of it myself. Honestly, I'd really like to know, even if it's not a technically feasible thing to accomplish, I'd like to know what, exactly, is done at install time /other/ than installing RPMs.
Perhaps it is the /etc/SuSE-release file or is it /var/adm/YaST/InstSrcManager/IS_CACHE_0x00000002/DESCRIPTION/description?
IS_CACHE_0x00000002 may have different names....
No, it's /var/adm/YaST/ProdDB/prod_00000001
Just replace all instances of the old version number with the new
If that's true, then I was able to do that approx. May 7th, although mine is prod_00000002. Hmm. I wonder what /that/ means. I did upgrade the box from 9.1 (had to install a CDROM temporarily). I'll note that the grub stuff didn't get updated, either, although that's just a detail. Still, there must a some place this stuff is listed (update grub menu, fiddle with /var/adm/YaST/...., etc....) -- Carpe diem - Seize the day. Carp in denim - There's a fish in my pants!
