Description Axel Braun 2005-12-15 17:21:44 UTC

I upgraded from 9.3 to 10.0 using the Eval DVD.
Whan analysing the packages, some locked packages were displayed. Right click on a packet allows you to
- keep it (Beibehalten, enter or '-')
- update/refresh '+'
If you run with '+' through the package list the packages are set to 'update'. Once you reach a packet which can't be updated, the function of the '+' button turns to 'keep/Beibehalten'.
So far, so good. But if you reach the next packet that can be updated, the function remains of the '+'-button remains 'keep' instead of turning to 'update' again.

This works fine for me - I just double-checked.

Maybe you misunderstood the semantics of this: A package is only marked for update if there is a newer version available.

Comment 3 Axel Braun 2005-12-19 11:54:31 UTC

unfortunately....i dont think I misunderstood the functionality. I talk only about those packages that are marked locked for update. 
I had the same problem on the update of a machine on the weekend, and I have another update coming for a laptop, which I can use as additional verification. Feel free to contact me in german if this is easier for explanation.
Cheers
Axel

Well - I tried to reproduce, and it behaves exactly like expected.

Comment 5 Axel Braun 2005-12-20 08:57:37 UTC

still not really happy with closing the bug.
Tried on the laptop, here I can confirm that a double click on the lock-icon sets the status to 'update'.
- Pressing '+' twice does not set the status to update. It keeps 'hold', and you can only change with right mouse -> update. '+' does *not* work
- Double click works only if you do it on the icon, not on the line (OK, we can discuss if this is a feature)
- If you come around a package not on the installation media (in this case faac, version 1.24-0.pm.2), click or double click on the lock symbol does *not work*. '+' works to change status.

I still feel this is somewhat inconsistent.

You may not be happy about it, but this is how it works. Please stop playing Bugzilla ping-pong. We have better things to do.

What do multiple clicks have to do with the hotkeys? Please read the help text. It explains in great detail how this works. And it works as it should.

And it does not change the status away from "protected" or "taboo" on purpose.

If you want to switch through all possible package states, use "blank", not one of the hot keys that switch to one specific status.
