[Bug 436795] New: YaST conflict dialog broken regarding package replacement
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436795 Summary: YaST conflict dialog broken regarding package replacement Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: martin.schlander@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- If you try to install packages that obsoletes/replaces others, the dialog you get notifying about the conflict and asking you what to do is broken. You check the "replace package" checkbox -> try again -> but it just keeps asking the same question over and over again. Detlef provided Pascal Bleser with this video of it: http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/files/bugs/000000/yast.ogg I saw it myself when trying to install libxine1 and recent mplayer packages from packman - which try to replace existing packages - you have to make changes manually to workaround the broken conflict dialog. The problem wasn't always there in 11.0 - it seems to have appeared around the end of September, I guess there was an update around that time which caused the breakage. This may sound like a minor inconvenience, but actually it makes multimedia 1-clicks pretty useless and makes it rather difficult for noobs to install multimedia codecs even manually - so this is a major problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
