Description AL13N 2011-02-26 13:02:05 CET

Description of problem:

urpmi --update-dependencies task-kde

could update also all it's dependencies (even if task-kde is the latest version), without actually all the packages being marked as individually installed.

Reproducible: 

Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 1 Ahmad Samir 2011-02-26 16:40:55 CET

Please modify the bug summary to reflect this is request to add a new option to urpmi.

(FWIW, urpme task-kde4 && urpmi task-kde4 already works).

Comment 2 D Morgan 2011-02-26 17:09:29 CET

i think the good solution would be to fix version requires on task-kde for ex to add which amarok version we wants, ... and so on.

task kde is fixed in svn regarding this.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Comment 4 AL13N 2011-03-08 19:57:15 CET

well, my original request was something more like, recursively installing updates of packages (looking into requires and suggests)

that way, dependencies of dependencies of packages would also be updated.

Comment 5 Thierry Vignaud 2011-03-15 14:27:17 CET

Only upgrading part of the system between two releases is usually not as stable as upgrading the whole system (hidden unversionnated requires, ...)

Priority: Normal => Low

Comment 6 Ahmad Samir 2011-03-15 18:18:03 CET

(FWIW I am against versionated suggests too).

Comment 7 AL13N 2011-03-15 20:20:41 CET

well, my original suggestion still stands, an option that would install updates for each and every requirement and suggestion (unless --no-suggests)
