Because the installed open-vm-tools package requires vmware-guest-kmp.

But why wasn't it removed as well (and any other packages in the way)?

(I think 'zyyper rm' should only enable the target repo, people don't expect installs when they remove packages.)

Yes, we can do it this way. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
