smart on cli runs fine though.

downgrading smart to 0.52-5.1 did not help, still same error:

Tried downgrading all smart again to 0.51-56, which runs fine on my 32 bit desktop, but it did not help too. # smart install smart-0.51-5 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

OK, problem solved! -- Just in case this may assist someone in the future...
I tried several approaches, including one click install of Smart, as Geoff
suggested earlier. No go. So eventually I remembered that sometimes on 64-bit
systems, weird errors can come up which are not picked up as dependency
issues, when a 32-bit package is installed where there should be a 64-bit
one.
Incidentally, this is one thing Smart tends to do when one is not paying
attention - it will offer to upgrade a 64-bit package with the new one being
32-bit.
So I ran the following command:
rpm -qa --qf '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}.rpm\n' | grep i586
and amongst the results there was
