yes, I can reproduce that. Seems to be a resolver issue. I'll talk to the zypp guys about this.
Was this issue solved in the final SLES10 or SLES10-SP1? The posting above was the last one in this thread and I couldn't find any newer on that topic. Sorry for digging in the past, but testing SLES10-SP1 and SLED10-SP1 and some "combination" with openSuSE 10.1. I have similar problems with <remove-packages> which have been solved for openSuSE 10.1 in 2006 by the fix for the root image. But what about SLES? And to answer an obvious question: Yes, I only want to remove packages, that are not required by others and which I can remove with yast, but not automatically (as described above). And not beeing removed, they even cause some dependency conflicts, so later removal with rpm -e... is no solution here. As far as I understand, the problem still seems to occur in some newer distributions again as e.g. openSUSE 10.3 (see posting from 26.2. and 27.2.2008)!? Is that right?
