[opensuse] Problem Updating After Installing from Build Service
I purchased a new laptop in June, shrank Windows and installed OpenSuSE 11.1. I added Build Service Repositories for FireFox and OpenOffice and was pleasantly pleased to find FF 3.5 available the day it was released. However, whenver attempting to run YaST online update, it tries to "update" to 3.0.11 (now 12). How can I prevent this other than manually changing the proposed update each time? Instead, it would be nice to restrict any updates to 3.5.x from the FF Build Service repository. Thank you, Lucky Leavell -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Edit the build service repositories and make them a (slightly) higher priority than the update repo. The default is a priority of 99 and by decreasing the number, you increase the priority. Increasing the priority number will lower the priority.
