First check if the Feature status is "done".

tasks left to be done

deleted content in this ticket duplicated from fate as discussed with marita. The fate entry is still not set to DONE but the code already has some kind of auto-update included. I worked around an issue which came up interlinked with this on ssh+X installs in https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/1478

Verification run: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/448100

However during discussion in the openQA call questions came up if the system we test does not change too much under our hands while testing, i.e. calling the same test a later time would behave differently because the installer would have an update?
dzedro will ask the YaST team how they plan to test the update feature, e.g. provide a fake update channel (over SCC?).

So I consider this ticket done unless dzedro comes back with different ideas from next meeting with YaST team. Also, I would like to resolve it only after the corresponding fate issue is marked as done.

As I just learned from https://mailman.suse.de/mlarch/SuSE/research/2016/research.2016.07/msg00080.html the self_update can be disabled with

self_update=0

as boot param. So we should have two scenarios:

  • self_update=1 (current default)
  • self_update=0
