Re: [opensuse] openSUSE 11.0: How to disable GNOME opensuse updater panel applet?

Hi Carlos,

A trick I used in the past was to disallow execute for all attribute on the executables, so that users have to belong to a specific group to run it. But this one contains several executables and I don't know which one to change - or all:

* /usr/bin/gpk-application
* /usr/bin/gpk-backend-status
* /usr/bin/gpk-install-local-file
* /usr/bin/gpk-install-mime-type
* /usr/bin/gpk-install-package-name
* /usr/bin/gpk-install-provide-file
* /usr/bin/gpk-log
* /usr/bin/gpk-prefs
* /usr/bin/gpk-repo
* /usr/bin/gpk-update-icon
* /usr/bin/gpk-update-viewer

Thanks. Removing kde4-opensuse-updater and gnome-packagekit with autoyast helped. Users who know what they are doing, can still do a "zypper update".

Bye
Bernd
