Feature changed by: Rémy Marquis (Spyhawk) Feature #310085, revision 2 - Title: Zypper: Filter + Title: Zypper patch: Filter Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Michael Moser (mose) Description: I would be nice if there was a way to install only security patches that are 'Needed'. I have a multitude of SuSE based servers under management where I work, and we need to keep boxes up to date with security releases. Since we dont manage the applications the customer uses, we have no way of knowing if recommended patches for any given package will have adverse affects on their software. Currently we zypper pchk | grep ' Needed' then copy the output of that output to zypper patch Something to the order of: * zypper patch -s (security only) * zypper patch -r (recommended only) * zypper patch (Defaults to all patches) I've seen alot of threads on google on this subject, I think it would be a worthwhile implementation. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310085
