[opensuse] Suspicious Update
I just got a notification for a security update for Opera via my applet. I do not have opera browser installed on this machine and I scanned my machine to see if it might have been installed without me knowing about it. Not sure why I'm getting this notice. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Check if it is installed with: rpm -q opera We released a Opera security update today, so this is likely genuine. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I did the rpm -q opera earlier, and just now doublechecked. "package opera is not installed" -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

The question is, is this actually a 64 bit update being offered in a 32 bit system or is it actually a 32 bit program update that is actually "needed" in a 32 bit system? and if it is a 64 bit update why is it offered in a 32 bit system? -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

This is due to the nature of our update system that shares 1 tree for 3 (5) platforms. The i586 updates in there have no changes, but the "patch" itself exists for all platforms (it is noarch).

This is precisely the same thing I asked about in "Irrelevant Update in openSUSE Updater" starting at 2007-10-22@17:52 (GMT). Since you mentioned it and I neglected to even look at the "Arch." column in the Versions tab, I note that this is listed as "i586". So, is it "noarch" or i586 or x86_64? So far, the information we have is all quite inconsistent.

What update, openmotif or opera? The "patch" is a metafile, which is noarch. The Opera update is i586,x86_64 and ppc. The openmotif-libs22 update is i586 and x86_64. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

As I said in my original post, openmotif-libs22.

Then the Summary is very misleading. Also, it would be nice to be able to read the Patch Description in the openSUSE Updater.

It actually has i586 packages, but they are bitwise identical. Yes, it probably should not have included those, but to get this with the engine would have required manual fixes in the bowels of the system.

I believe the issues is why are we being told we have a mandatory update of opera on a system we do not have opera installed on?

Exactly! I sent my screenshot of the updater and results from running zypper lu to Andreas directly since I'm not supposed to post attachments to the list here. I also included the rpm -qa | grep Opera and rpm -qa | grep opera commands to prove that I do not have opera installed on my system. Saying that this mandatory update is needed for other components other than Opera doesn't help matters much. If we are indeed security conscious, then it is up to us to question the security of a security update.

It does raise some interesting questions, and if I can add to the "poking" a bit here. I changed the default preference in the applet to treat Recommended Updates as "Additional" rather than "Mandatory". Now I get an orange sun-shaped icon notification rather than the red triangle notification. Fair enough. But the Opera update is still listed in the update details. To me, that's a separate issue from the default preference issue. I don't think updater should list any updates that don't apply to anything that doesn't exist on the current user's system. Also, zypper lu shows a different list of updates, as Todd indicated earlier in his posting, and I'm seeing the same list on my system. Since the updater and zypper use the same library and scan the same enabled repositories, why is the result different? Just posing these questions, not trying to be challenging or antagonistic. :-) -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough, I was talking about the details view options. It wasn't quite that but once I looked, but its unrelated to the updater applet.

Its because the logic for what patches to show seems to be sprinkled it multiple places - basically its in each frontend individually afaict (ncurses, zypper, qt, gtk) and the gtk was not synced with the others. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=336124 Test packages with just this fix are at: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jproseve/ We'll roll this up with a larger yast-gtk update thats in the pipe -JP -- JP Rosevear <jpr@novell.com> Novell, Inc. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Ciao, Marcus Well this got me to looking, there are some preferences see attached. You are able to treat other updates as either mandatory or additional and this is the update tool that shows up in the notification area. If I check for what update programs are running...
ps -ef | egrep update\|yast2 nessts 5141 5000 0 07:37 ? 00:00:01 opensuse-updater-gnome-applet nessts 9347 1 0 09:01 ? 00:00:00 gnomesu -- /sbin/yast2 root 9348 9347 0 09:01 ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/libgnomesu/gnomesu-pam-backend 16 15 root /sbin/yast2 root 9356 9348 0 09:01 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /sbin/yast2 Now this being said, the attached opensuseupdater.tiff picture shows I am indeed running the opensuse updater but, I assume where the yast2-gtk comes into play is when I want to see what the updates are and I click the details button that is when I see the previous screenshot. But, now as you can see they are not mandatory since I changed the preference to treat them as additional updates. But, now I will get this orange icon in the notification area indefinitely I suppose unless I choose to install opera. So, maybe that is a bug or a feature. The default choice of choosing to classify all extra updates as mandatory seems to be strange. -- Todd Ness

Uhm.. I hate to catch so much attention about it, but still in the times where most people use DSL, I know,I have it on my home too. But such big pictures causes me quit a bit traffic here on my mobile device, which directly influences the height of my bill.. So I'd please you not to attach big pictures or other files to mails and rather uploade them somewhere(there are many pic hosters, like imageshack.us, img-up.net, etc.) and link them in your mails, ok? :) Greetings Michael

uhm, you're aware of the fact that this is an update for the openmotif libs, right? It doesn't really have anything to do with Opera, Opera can, but is not the only application that uses this libs.
This really looks like a bug to me. It happened to me as well, I do not have the package installed, but zypper up tries to install it anyway.

I still get weird stuff. This morning, I did a check-now on the applet. After several moments (checking repo's in the background) it tells me I have 1 mandatory security update. I click details, and after logging in once again, repo's are checked (why check again when it was already checked a moment ago?). Then I see the so-called security update. There is only one update listed, and it is marked "recommended." It is the release-notes update to update language translations. I hardly consider this a security update. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I have a similar bobble on my new 10.3 installation. In the Available Updates I get: Name..............Summary................................... openmotif22-libs openmotif22-libs: 64bit package added for ...............Type..........New Version compatibility Optional 4540-0 I don't have a 64-bit system, and as far as I know, I don't have any need for openmotif22-libs. I've left it unchecked and uninstalled, and so far there are no apparent problems. Should I do something about it? At the moment it's no big deal, but if more of these come up, it could get hard to identify good updates.

To determine package requirements execute the following command sequence: user@localhost:~> rpm -q --whatrequires <PACKAGE> where <PACKAGE> denotes the rpm package to be queried. Cheers. Thomas

No, it's something fishy in libzypp handling that kind of patches. We are currently investigating if it's broken patch, or bug in libzypp. For discussion, see the bug mentioned in other part of this thread.
