10.0 - using yast2 to do only one update
I want to install only one update, Acrobat 7.0.8. I downloaded only that deltarpm, and trying to install it I get this error: acroread-7.0.1_7.0.8-4_1.1.i586.delta.rpm install failed rpm output: error: acroread-7.0.1_7.0.8-4_1.1.i586.delta.rpm is a deltarpm, create a real rpm from it first! 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. -- "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."

Or go straight to the 16th result from that search: http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs I'm looking forward to the reinstatement of delta / patch rpms - on my 1Mb/s ADSL updates are very slow with 10.1 compared to 10.0.

Found nothing relevant there about the subject distro. -- "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 Felix Miata *** http://mrmazda.no-ip.com/

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. Acroread is now at 708. -- "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
