OK, so where is the howto on doing that? Is there a way to use YaST2 to install only one patch from the GUI? I tried to deselect all and then then add only Acrobat, but many remained selected.
search for 'delta' on http://opensuse.org
First page of 20 results was about 1/3 non-English and thus useless to me. I opened all 20 anyway. Of the 20, only one looked like a possible, but actually was no help. I clicked on "next 20" and got 9 more, again largely non-English, of which nothing was relevant. I gave up and deleted my downloaded delta rpms and found full update rpms.
