I upgraded mozilla-js192 from 1.9.2.4-9.1 to 1.9.2.6-3.1 But are old versions stored anywhere - for next time? -- (Remove any numerics from my email address.)

Hi Dave, Don't know if old versions are stored somewhere, but you can configure each repository in YAST so that the downloaded packages are kept on disk. That way you can always fallback to an earlier version. In addition, I would give the mozilla repository a higher priority in YAST, say "10", so that the mozilla packages always come from the same site and remain in sync.

If I select the repo and hit edit I don't have that option, see screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/862480/temp/yast_repo1.png > In addition, I would give the mozilla repository a higher priority in > YAST, say "10", so that the mozilla packages always come from the same > site and remain in sync.
