NEW: zypper-1.14.31 (libzypp-17.15.0)
--solver-focus MODE
[/etc/zypp/zypp.conf:solver.focus]
If you do not request a specific version of a package the solver will pick a
reasonable one. The solvers general attitude when resolving a job is to focus
on installing the best version of the requested package and to add or update
dependencies as they are needed. Aside from this 'Focus on Job', which is the
default, two other focus modes are available:
In 'Focus on Installed' mode the solver focuses on applying as little changes to
the installed packages as needed. Choosing an older version of a requested
package is valid if it’s dependencies require less changes to the system. The
solver will try to avoid updating already installed packages.
In 'Focus on Update' mode the solver focuses on updating the requested package
and all its dependencies as much as possible. Beware, installing a single
package in this mode may easily lead to a mini system update.
For a single command the focus mode can be set using the '--solver-focus MODE'
switch. Valid modes are Job, Installed or Update. If you want to change the
default mode for your system, set [/etc/zypp/zypp.conf:solver.focus] to the
desired value.
