I have noticed that every time I use zypper dup to update KDE, libxine1-codecs and k3b-codecs get removed.
Is it possible to modify the package manager so that it backups up libxine1-codecs and k3b-codecs, update KDE and then reinstall the codecs back automatically.
Can this be accomplished?
What is the exact command you use?
'zypper dup -r <kkfd-alias>'? otherwise I don't see why it'd remove stuff or have you disabled packman?
Better use zypper dup --from <kkfd-alias> as this will not disable the other repos for the upgrade
Why do you folks use dup at all? dup is for _distro_ upgrades not for simply updating a few packages. Simply use "up'" instead and be done with it.
While I agree in general with you. There are occasions (for KKFD) where it is better to use dup, e.g. -packages being renamed /obsolete -Newer version of a library is required and for this introduced in KKFD -For some unknown reason (some) packages are actually downgrades I now these are quite rare cases and usually when Beta releases of KDE are in KKFD. But I managed a few times to brake something with KKFD when only doing zypper up. So doing zypper dup --from KKFD and followed by zypper up for other repos is more save IMO. Of course it is most times superfluous and a plain zypper up would give the same result.
