Why during 'smart --gui' running installation of updates would I see this message in the log window twice in succession - e.g. between Samba and OpenOffice.org, and more elsewhere, and yet again when the overall process has apparently finished without any announcement to that effect? It seems the only purpose it could serve is to cause a scare from lack of apparent progress with the % unchanged for and extended time for a big package. -- "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 3:23 NIV
At the time "smart --gui" attempted to lock the database, it was locked by some other process and that process released it before smart made changes. At least smart will do infos and querys on a locked database, rpm and apt would not do that, iirc. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
