Description Michael Norman 2007-04-24 14:41:50 UTC 
I have several packages that I have built to replace the version supplied in openSUSE. In order to make sure an openSUSE version did not override my packages, I set the Epoch: field when building the packages. The Software Updater constantly reports that these packages need to be udpated. When viewing the details on the update, the following is displayed:

  Update Version: 2:4.20-1
  Installed Version: 4.20-1

As can be seen, the software updater reports the Epoch: in the Update Version, but not in the Installed Version, even though it is already installed. As a result, it always reports that an update is available.

Zenworks is no more part of opensuse....


Yes, epoch was not being handled properly before. Now it has been fixed for SLE10 SP1. So marking this as fixed.
