Since the 2 are aimed at different use scenarios, maybe you are making this harder than NOW is necessary. The developers do realize there are problems. That is why they created opensuseupdater. Try it, you'll like it. It is much more lightweight than zen-updater, only trying to notify the user of security updates. Zen-updater is designed to notify of an update in every configured repository. Which do you think would need more resources? Add to that load the fact that it isn't just a matter of seeing something newer, but making sure it isn't a rogue package by verifying the gpg signature. That is why IMHO zen-updater is doomed by design. I would suggest trying the product you mention in your subject.
Before you dump all over Robert, bear in mind that the software that sits in the tray does not report its name, other than to say its the software updater. Is that the zen updater or the opensuse updater? And where does one get the opensuseupdator? Its not listed in my menuing system. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
