always have to use "urpmi --nodelete --auto-select ..." instead. I can't find information anywhere on how to alter rpmdrake's defaults.

are you sure that it's rolling back? I haven't seen that.
it may dump the list, but it hasn't rolled the packages back after updating them.
the dump of the list is meant to force the checking against the mirror for what packages are needed even after a partially successful update. this reducing the chance of an error in updating breaking a critical ( for your use ) app.


just my 2 cents
