Package install will not show conflicts if package is not already downloaded
Last modified: 2024-04-18 19:58:04 UTC
While trying to install sevctl on a Microos host, I found the following message, while there's nothing awful with it, I'd like to be able to know that during an update/pkg install (attended or unattended) if there are any conflicts. I'd expect that transactional-update would add the --download-in-advance or mentioned somewhere in the documentation > The following NEW package is going to be installed: > sevctl > 1 new package to install. > Overall download size: 3.0 MiB. Already cached: 0 B. After the operation, additional 9.3 MiB will be used. > > Backend: classic_rpmtrans > Continue? [y/n/v/...? shows all options] (y): y > > Checking for file conflicts: [...done] > Warning: 1 package had to be excluded from file conflicts check because it is not yet download. > > Note: Checking for file conflicts requires not installed packages to be downloaded in advance in > order to access their file lists. See option '--download-in-advance / --dry-run --download-only' > in the zypper manual page for details.
