So from that output you can see that there are no newer versions of the
installed products available, neither for openSUSE, nor openSUSE-FTP. So this
is not zypper's problem or problem of libzypp's solver.
The only potential problem i see there is, that if you'd install product
openSUSE-factory (zypper in -t product openSUSE-factory) and after some time
would want to update the system with zypper up -t product, you'd get the same
'nothing to do message'. That would be because the version of the new
openSUSE-factory would be still 10.3. I.e. the build number has to be included
in the
openSUSE-factory version in order to trigger installation.
The bug is probably either in the susetags parser or in the content file. Or
somewhere in between (an agreement and coordination is needed? Have we dealt
with this before?). Looking at the content file, it looks messy when it comes
to product version - VERSION 10.3 vs. DISTVERSION 10.2.42-factory vs. PROVIDES
product:openSUSE = 10.2.42. Michael, can you check?
We can take this to the sw-management mailing list, if it make sense.
So, as long as the products' dependencies and versions are correctly set and
parsed, zypper up should work.
