Title: Message Title

Theo Chatzimichos created an issue   Puppet / PUP-3968 Cache the zypper list-updates output Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: PUP 3.7.4 Assignee: Unassigned Components: Performance Created: 2015/02/05 12:20 PM Environment: openSUSE, SLES Priority: Normal Reporter: Theo Chatzimichos The zypper provider calls `zypper list-updates` in order to get a list of the packages that have newer versions. Then it checks if the resource name matches any of the items in the list, and then applies the newer version. The problem with the above though is that it runs list-updates for every single package instance, while it should be run only once, as it provides all the packages that have newer versions available. I'm going to submit a PR for this in github.
