See the attached list below. Just don't understand why all of those
packages must be downgraded or the newer ones not installed. Never had
this kind of problem before and I do use Packman, especially for the
crippled SuSE video packages.

I completely update KDE3 relatively frequently without any problems.
Currently I'm on 3.5.9 and I'm happy with it. I need to start a separate
post on 3.5.10 to see if it is good to go. About a week ago someone was
complaining about problems with it. So we will see. For your
information, I have the following repositories added:

I just scrolled through your conflicts list and picked out
"kdebase3-runtime-3.5.10-24.4.x86_64 requires libldap-2.3.so.0()(64bit)"
.. I then searched with http://packages.opensuse-community.org/ ,which is
a very useful tool in this case, for libldap-2.3.so.0 under opensuse
10.3 and found it in package openldap2-client-64bit (2.3.37)
<http://packages.opensuse-community.org/packageinfo.jsp?checksum=f9c2ac5b1e
9079f66814ab4c67a4d51b1e3e9748&distro=openSUSE_103> so this is the package
you want for 10.3. Next I looked for
openldap2-client under 11.0 and discovered that version 2.4.9 is in 11.0
and matches the line "downgrade of openldap2-client-2.4.9-7.1.x86_64 to
openldap2-client-2.3.37-20.8.x86_64" From this I conclude that you have
at some stage done a one click install of something maybe and no longer
have the repository. The package kdebase3-runtime-3.5.10-24.4.x86_64 is
only listed as being present in 11.0, 10.3 only has 32 bit versions, try
searching for kdebase3-runtime under 11.0 and 10.3 and you will see what
I mean.
This line further down in your conflict gives a clue
"OpenOffice_org-2.4.0.14-1.1.x86_64 requires libldap-2.4.so.2()(64bit),
but this requirement cannot be provided". So it seems thats where the
problem is. OpenOffice 2.4 is the 11.0 version and 2.3 is the 10.3
version. Whichever repository you got version 2.4 from needs to be enabled.
Excuse me if you have already done this but can you post the output of
zypper lr .

Thanks for replying Dave, and your analysis of the conflict list.

So, are you saying I have a mixture of 10.3 and 11.0 packages installed?
And the solution is to enable the 11.0 repositories? Or is the solution to let
everything be downgraded to get back to a pure 10.3 system?

Here is the output of zypper lr:

Sorry about the line wrap.

I did do a "one click" install of KDE4 but did not like it and uninstalled it.
I also disabled / deleted the repository.
