But in any case there's a problem there, an option in the UI that doesn't behave as expected. If the option is there, it should do something and if it's decided that the option is dangerous, it should be removed. Otherwise Bugzilla will be flooded by complaints about unexpected behaviour. > OK, /var/tmp is "semi-permanent"; only /tmp is really /tmp.

Looking at the increased number of YaST-related directories in /var/tmp after each YaST session, it seems that new temp files are created each time and the old ones are not used again, so it doesn't seem necessary to keep them around. Actually I think it should be the other way round: If they are just used during one YaST session and never used again, they should be in /tmp, not /var/tmp. >> - "Taboo" flag is not persistent in the package manager >> >> https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=164445 >> https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=153337 > > Was it before?

I think it should be. There are not only security updates, but also optional ones which might introduce problems - there's always a risk that an update can introduce problems. At least for optional, not security critical updates, not installing them is a viable solution. There should be an option to block these permanently. Actually the first dhcp update for 10.1 *was* broken, I was offline after applying it. That's why I noticed it. Right now the "taboo" option doesn't seem to do anything else than the "do not install" option.
