Show Automatic Package Changes & Repository Dependency Jan 31st 2013, 21:30 Hi, I'm new in SLES 11 SP1. I'm trying to understand how "Extras+Show Automatic Package Changes" works in Yast / Software management. Please someone could help me about it? I've read: "To install packages, select packages for installation and click Accept. Selected packages should have the Install status icon . The package manager automatically checks the dependencies and selects any other required packages (resolution of dependencies). To view other packages required for installation before clicking Accept, choose Extras+Show Automatic Package Changes from the main menu." In particular I have following doubts: How are calculated the packages showed in this list? How can I see what other(s) package(s) are the reason of the dependency? I've notice that there is a dependency between the repositories enabled and the list of showed packages. Is this normal? How can I see all these packages dependencies even though if I don't have included the repositories where these packages can be found? Thank you in advance
