As to what patch it did install, I do not think I can still dig up that name. (Should have written it down earlier...) As to what is still shown, here is a partial list: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- MozillaThunderbird: Security update to fix various problems RealPlayer update to version 10.0.9 aaa_base: Fix for Firefox and konqueror to download aspx pages instead acroread: fix error on acroread startup cpio: fix function safer_name_suffix() emacs: Update to fix bug in parsing GIF images gd security update gv: Additional fix for previous security update vim: This update of Vim addresses a format-string bug in "helptags" (C ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Right now, I've noticed something: one of the patches shown in yast is pre-selected for installation -- the others aren't. When I run zypper, that patch is installed. So I guess I'll have to ask a different question: why is it that some patches are selected for installation while others are not?
