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? 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'm not sure Masarus way would work due to the fact that pipewire where installed without my intervention in the first place and could therefor be again. I'd like to just freeze it as is until the jack compatible layer will be up to realtime task regarding buffer, periods, hardware support etc (I've got several USB interfaces that I work with and works nice with alsa but not everything in pipewire can be pointed to which interface to use and when. Lets say it's not there yet, but will be in time. -- /bengan
