For the past few weeks, I have been getting this when adding security
updates to my system (via YaST):

libpackagekit-glib10-0.3.11-1.14.1.i586 requires PackageKit = 0.3.11,
but this requirement cannot be provided
uninstallable providers:

PackageKit-0.3.11-1.13.1.i586[openSUSE:11.1:Update]
                   PackageKit-0.3.11-1.12.i586[repo-oss]

    [ ] deinstallation of libpackagekit-glib10-0.3.11-1.14.1.i586

    [ ] do not install PackageKit-0.4.5-2.31.i586

    [ ] Ignore some dependencies of libpackagekit-glib10

I googled a bit and mainly found the SUSE announcement of a security
update to PackageKit (http://www.net-security.org/advisory.php?id=9891),
which is what I think is what should be installed here. I have been
choosing 'do not install', expecting the issue to be related to
repository syncing. But some time has now passed, so I think the issue
is something else.

Oddly, I saw a similar complaint for Fedora, but the various fixes
suggested there involved removing packages that do not have installed.
And using those suggestions is like taking a friends extra medication
because you have similar complaints and do not want to go to the doctor.

Anyone else seen this? Better yet: anyone know the cure?
