Before i saw this feature with the warning in zypper i would say here yes too but now i found this very useful because in the case of gui apps or the gui itself it is not even clear for me what for libs been used. I'm running opensuse on my laptop too and i'm often suprised after an update what for litte apps use what for libs. But no question, it would more say it is nice if it is there but not a thing what is absolutely necessary or that it is unacceptable that we users do this by ourselves.
Well, you certainly do have a point; finding out which apps are using the updated libraries etc would be nice. After thinking about it for a moment, it seems one solution would be very simple. Just run "lsof | grep -i DEL". I'm pretty sure that this could be much optimized, but i hope the idea is clear.
System administration is all about taking responsibility, IMHO. When it gets too hard for some users, they could always consider rebooting. HTH, HAND mvg, Guus
