When I have two YAST repositories (e.g., SUSE's and Packman) and I want to get online updates from both, how do I configure that?
At present this is a shortcoming in YaST - of having separate components for software management and updates. Also that the former can have multiple sources and the latter only one enabled at a time.
Future versions (perhaps not 10.1 though) will hopefully consolidate the two such that YaST's software management behaves (in that respect) more like APT/SMART (ie you can have base, update, packman, usr-local-bin etc etc all available to ensure you get the latest version). -- James Ogley james@usr-local-bin.org Packages for SUSE: http://usr-local-bin.org/rpms Make Poverty History: http://makepovertyhistory.org
I'm sorry, did I miss something or are you guys smoking something that should be shared with all of us? ;o) You can add as many sources in YaST2 software management, System Update as you like, through the Installation Sources module! Just click add and fill in the blanks, enable & refresh and there ya go! YaST2 is every bit as capable as any of the others, guys. I think that was the point Ken was trying to make, but for some reason everything took a wrong turn to YOU. end of line Lee
