Can all the packages in
http://software.opensuse.org/download/M17N/SUSE_Linux_10.1/src/
assumed to be new/improved compared to 10.1 ?
Yes.
But there is one thing which might cause problems currently:
http://software.opensuse.org/download/M17N/SUSE_Linux_10.1
contains freetype 2.2.1 packages!
freetype 2.2.1 is not completely binary compatible to freetype 2.1.10
(which was originally in SuSE 10.1).
I installed it on one of my 10.1 systems and didn't run into problems.
I have added freetype 2.2.1 to
http://software.opensuse.org/download/M17N/SUSE_Linux_10.1 only for
testing purposes. Nevertheless I'll probably remove it again soon. As
soon as anybody reports problems due to the freetype update I'll
remove it immediately.
Packages from that directory which do not build against freetype
are of course safe to update.
