Typing "zypper up", I get this response:
Loading repository data... Reading installed packages...
The following 7 package updates will NOT be installed: MozillaThunderbird libfreebl3 libfreebl3-hmac libsoftokn3 libsoftokn3-hmac mozilla-nspr mozilla-nss-certs
Nothing to do.
It could also have told me that millions of other updates would not be installed. Why did it nominate just these seven ones?
No, because it "sees" 7 updates in the repositories you have enabled, but your configured rules say no to them.
Like, for example, meaning a vendor change.
Is there any possibility to configure an automatic vendor change?
Too dangerous. But yes, I think it is --allowvendorchange or something similar. Or equivalent in config file.
If so, could you please tell me how that is done?
You can fire up YaST, search for thunderbird, then select the version you want. If you really want that.
That's what I did some minutes ago: In Yast, I added http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/openSUSE_Leap_15.2 to the repositories, giving it the name "Packman". Then I invoked zypper dup --from Packman --allow-vendor-change which created the following response: The following 26 packages are going to change vendor: ffmpeg-3 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de gstreamer-plugins-ugly openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de gstreamer-plugins-ugly-lang openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavcodec57 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavcodec58 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavdevice57 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavfilter6 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavformat57 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavformat58 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavresample3 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavutil55 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libavutil56 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libgstphotography-1_0-0 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libpostproc54 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libswresample2 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libswresample3 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libswscale4 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libvlc5 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de libvlccore9 openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de vlc openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de vlc-codec-gstreamer openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de vlc-lang openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de vlc-noX openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de vlc-opencv openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de vlc-qt openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de vlc-vdpau openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de 26 packages to upgrade, 6 new, 26 to change vendor. Then I answered Yes, and the updates listed above were performed. Now, I always have to type these three requests for getting the complete updates: zypper patch zypper up zypper dup --from Packman --allow-vendor-change Thank you for your help and best regards, Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
