Thanks Per.
My guess is, he means what exact package or pattern to blacklist to get the result.
Actually, I'm not sure what I mean. But I know what I'd like to be the outcome of it. I've got pipewire installed but not by my doing. It snuck in 2018-07-14 as far as I can see in the /var/log/zypp/history*. And now that there is more and more leaning towards pipewire going to be default it will mess up my audio setting due to me needing jackd to do real-time recordings and pipewire isn't up to that task, yet. It will be but the general consensus in the linux audio world is that pipewire isn't there yet. So I need to freeze (not remove) pipewire without my settings being messed up. I need to blacklist pipewire all together from zypper dup and Per's suggestion sounds right.
Carlos hinted that it could be done with pattern, right?
It is a guess :-)
This is what I have: libpipewire-0_1-0 libpipewire-0_3-0 pipewire pipewire-media-session pipewire-modules pipewire-spa-plugins-0_2 pipewire-spa-tools pipewire-tools
It looks that * could be used for "zypper help al". zypper al pipewire* libpipewire*
I usually try with "yast2 sw_single", search "pipewire", and in that window blacklist one package, possibly "pipewire" itself and see what happens. With a few tries you could hit the master package. I can not try because I don't have TW. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.3 (Legolas))
