Description Dirk Mueller 2009-01-08 13:57:06 UTC

I'm testing updates to rsyslog on 11.1 (x86_64):


3.18.3-4.32 is installed, 3.18.3-4.33.1 is available.

Comment 2 Jan Kupec 2009-01-08 14:23:28 UTC

'zypper lp' does not list the patch either. I must check why 'pch' thinks it is needed then.

Are you sure there was _nothing_ here? Not even other patches (esp. those affecting package management stack, e.g. yast)?

Comment 4 Jan Kupec 2009-01-08 14:44:53 UTC

ok. I can reproduce now.

Comment 5 Jan Kupec 2009-01-08 15:04:07 UTC

Got it. The problem is the repository priority - your update test repo obviously has lower priority than the openSUSE-11.1-Update. And the second problem is that zypper uses it's own function to determine what it will choose for update (which ignores repo priority), except for 'zypper patch' (zypper up -t patch), where i forgot replace the function. Thanx for finding this!

Comment 6 Jan Kupec 2009-01-08 15:10:44 UTC

Fixed in git, to be in zypper 1.0.4

Comment 7 Jan Kupec 2009-01-12 17:51:51 UTC

Submitted. The proper fix (zypper honoring repo priority everywhere) will be done for 11.2/SP1.
