Bug in Kpackagekit in 11.4

I just thought I’d let you guys know, in case there’s anyone else experiencing this problem.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=678993.

I didn’t report the bug, I just found it while searching for a solution.

I noticed the same thing. I ran an update via YaST and it worked fine. Further updates through Kpackagekit seem fine, though.

I might have spoken a little too soon…Kpackagekit installed the updates this evening, but it seemed to take a lot longer than it should have.

Hi

See that command line as root:

zypper up -t package # to upgrade all installed packages with newer versions, where possible

I had this bug, and all the waiting updates were from Packman. Couldn’t get Kpackage kit to install them, so I used Yast to update. Kpackagekit seems to have since disappeared from the system tray.

I noticed today that Kpackagekit updater didn’t show the progress of the files as they downloaded from the full Packman repository. I’ll note here that I added Packman via “add community repository.” Once downloaded, the installation showed progress, and was quite quick.
