Description Pavol Rusnak 2008-06-02 20:13:29 UTC

I upgrade my distro regularly with 'zypper dup' command. Somehow the file /etc/zypp/locks is not present in my setting. When I try to lock some package it fails. After I touch this file it is OK.

(alias z='sudo zypper -v')

[stick@spectra ~] z addlock opera
Verbosity: 1
Non-option program arguments: 'opera'
Initializing Target
Reading installed packages...
Problem adding the package lock:
Cannot open file /etc/zypp/locks
[stick@spectra ~] ll /etc/zypp/locks
ls: cannot access /etc/zypp/locks: No such file or directory
[stick@spectra ~] sudo touch /etc/zypp/locks
[stick@spectra ~] z addlock opera
Verbosity: 1
Non-option program arguments: 'opera'

Specified lock has been successfully added.
