Possible to mark a package as "never downgrade"?

I’ve got geany 0.16 installed from OBS, but I don’t have the repo it came from enabled. Geany 0.15 is available in one of my enabled repos, so every time I run zypper dup it tries to downgrade geany from 0.16 to 0.15.

Is there a way to mark a package so that it is never downgraded, no matter what?

  • wadenelson,

man zypper, check the section named “Package Locks Management”
In short, “sudo zypper addlock packagename”

As always, the yast software module can be used to lock the package as well.
