A Sharky Anthro

Just a dude on the internet, looking for content and fun! I love Linux, gaming, writing, reading, music, anime, walks, and occasionally movies too. Chronically ill and anxious too, that makes life quite interesting…At times. Also learning about my anthro shark leanings…Thanks furries for providing me with a safe place to explore this part of me!

  • Honestly, I find that PackageKit is more annoying for system updates. Especially if you get regular driver updates and there are agreements that need to be confirmed, it can show them so slowly that an update can outright fail. I only use zypper for system updates because the “–auto-agree-with-licenses” flag can be used to prevent this issue. Honestly, I find that zypper handles system updates with a speed that rivals using Discover or GNOME Software. It makes finding conflicts and resolving them a lot easier too. I still use my software store to manage Flatpaks, as that is a good use for the store.

    If you feel comfortable with the idea, use YaST to remove PackageKit, it will make updating via command line so much easier. Just make sure to leave the Flatpak management alone, no, I am not at all speaking from experience ROFL.
