Nothing to do.

What happens if you try "zypper in bashdb".

My guess is that you get a warning that the package is about to change vendor.

It seems packman changed the vendor string in bashdb, and zypper will
generally not install a package from a vendor not previously listed in its
vendor file, unless you force it (with zypper in).
