Q: if you have many packages to upgrade but few are dependent of a library that is not available for example, how can you install upgrades that are OK and leave the ones that are not?. I have been doing it one by one but that is not good. What I am missing.
IIRC smart can lock such packages, so that they won't be affected by the upgrade → no dependency problem (at least for the moment, the rest of the upgrade should went through without disruption).
I can't tell you what the exact command syntax was, but afaik it was something with smart flag ....
smart flag --set lock <package-name>
smart flag --help
smart flag --set lock "libpoppler2 = 0.6.1-3.1@i586"
smart flag --[set remove] lock
