Weird behavior while installing/updating packages...

English Applications

When I run YaST2 on OpenSUSE 11.2, no matter if I’m installing or updating packages, the tool seems to run fine and suddenly quits after applying changes.

Here come some questions:

  1. For both situations (installing and updating packages), how can I make it so that the program is not closed after the installation, so I can keep on installing other packages?

  2. About online update, if I choose for it to show all available fixes, it shows a small list of packages to be updated (around 12). Some marked with a black box, some other blank. No matter the selection I make, after I click to apply the updates, the tool finishes the updating process, and opening again the online update, the same updates are still there, like if they were not installed. :open_mouth: Is it really supposed to behave like that?

Thanks in advance!

Yast does close down the package manager when it’s done. You can change this:
YAST - System - /etc/sysconfig Editor:
System>Yast2>GUI>PKGMGR_ACTION_AT_EXIT
Choose option “restart”

Do this in a terminal for me:

zypper lr -d

and

zypper lu
