Can anyone suggest a way out of this problem? (I tried taking libmtp out of the equation but then other dependencies are affected :-( .)

Cheers.

Basil,

That's worth reporting. Nothing should conflict with ncurses.

Thanks, David. I peeked inside the rpm and saw that Marcus Meissner is one of the authors of libmtp so am sending a copy of this message to him as a "bug report".

There is a bug :( although seems you are installing a third party libmtp package , our official package of libmtp7 also contains /usr/bin/reset which seems to be wrong :(

Marcus, any comments ? ;)

Where did you find the official libmtp7? I checked factory and 10.3 and no libmtp7 in sight. I did find it in packman's repository, and with that rpm there are no conflicting files. -- Gruß Andreas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

In the internal suse buildsystem ;)

right, only in factory libmtp7 exists, not on 10.3, but the conflict does exist there :(

Just to make sure that there are no misunderstandings, I forgot to mention that the problem I quoted that I am experiencing is with SuSE 10.2, repeat 10.2, and not 10.3 (although it would appear from the comments that 10.3 is also affected).

I have fixed it for Factory now, will be checked in soon I hope and then go away.

Ciao, Marcus

Thank you, Marcus, for the quick "fix"! Everything now has installed without a hitch :-) . Ciao. -- Past experience, if not forgotten, is a guide for the future. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
