You need room on your disk to store all of the rpms.
So what? When you're out of space, you'll change the default. You're usually not out of space. And with DownloadInHeaps, the space should not be a problem anyway. I really don't see why we should not default to the safer mode. Also, we should check whether there is enough space on the drives we use anyway. But that's probably something for the future. -- cheers, jano Ján Kupec YaST team ---------------------------------------------------------(PGP)--- Key ID: 637EE901 Fingerprint: 93B9 C79B 2D20 51C3 800B E09B 8048 46A6 637E E901 ---------------------------------------------------------(IRC)--- Server: irc.freenode.net Nick: jniq Channels: #zypp #yast #suse #susecz ---------------------------------------------------------(EOF)---

Some notes: - Most of the users have no idea how to change the default. - Trying to compute how much space you need to keep free for package install to succeed is non-trivial - you might end up with a device that's unable to update itself, or only with very high involvement from expert user Stano -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
