Running SUSE and openSUSE Linux 10
Automated Software Updates
As of version 7.1, SUSE Linux includes an automatic update agent. The YaST Online Update (YOU)
utility is built right into the YaST facility and offers an easy way to get updates, security patches,
and bug fixes for SUSE or openSUSE by downloading and installing them from software repositories
over the network. You can also execute YOU from the command line, using the kdesu you
command.
From within YaST, select Online Update. YaST uses software installation sources that have been
defined in YaST??™s Installation Source module to enable you to begin retrieving software updates
with a single click. It presents you with a list of patches from which you can choose. Security
patches are in red, all recommended patches are selected, and optional patches are shown
(unselected). It??™s easy to see all available patches and read their descriptions to determine if
you want them.
After you have selected the updates you want and clicked OK, you can watch the progress as each
patch and updated package is downloaded and installed.
