Hi All,

In re: oS 11.4 / GNOME 2 / x86_64

I got tired of orange skies and blue skin on YouTube and reverted to flash-player-11.1.102.63-0.2.1.x86_64

I've locked the package in 'Software Management' but YOU is still warning me that this package needs to be updated.

How do I suppress this warning?

TIA & regards,

Carl

Answering myself: The updater applet can't be set to ignore updates for locked packages, so, after confirming the lock was properly set both in YaST2 'Software Management' and zypper, I disabled the update checker panel applet and have reverted to checking for updates manually every few days using the YOU module. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yes, that's it, you have to remove package kit from the installation. It is broken. It not only does not obbey locks, it removes them! - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
