Bug ID: 437775
Summary: Packagekit does not allow for vendor change and
downgrade
Product: plasma-pk-updates
Version: unspecified
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: jgrul...@redhat.com
Reporter: vor...@z-ray.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If you have updates (zypper dup) which need vendor change (fetch from other
repository) or needs a downgrade to an older package from another repository
packagekit does not show any notifications nor message dialog to inform the
user.
It silently quits the update and is re evaluating available updates.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. run any zypper based OS
2. Have updates which need vendor change or downgrades to succeed
3. Click update
OBSERVED RESULT
The update silently fails and a new search for available updates happens
EXPECTED RESULT
A popup to ask for user choice eg "change vendors/downgrade or skip update" or
just a "zypper dup --allow-vendor-change --allow-downgrade"
