Comment (by bonefish):
And you don't get asked whether you want to perform the changes (without
the `-y` switch)?
Regarding a `--force` option, there isn't really any need for that, since
the whole point of `full-sync` is to allow package downgrades and
removals, which `update` doesn't do. IOW `full-sync` is what `update
--force` would do.
Regarding listing the changes in more categories than just "removing" and
"installing", that certainly can be done. IIRC openSUSE`s zypper has
categories "upgrade", "downgrade", "vendor change", "architecture change",
"remove", "install".
