http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1048837 Bug ID: 1048837 Summary: zypper prints inconsistent patch statistics Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp Assignee: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: richard@nod.at QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- On my systems I run the following commands as cron job to get notified when security patches are pending: LANG=C zypper -q --non-interactive ref LANG=C zypper -q --non-interactive lp -g security But sadly the output is not consistent. If no patches at all are available, a blank line is printed. If non-security patches are available it prints "0 patches needed (0 security patches)". This makes matching the output hard and error prone. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
