The "fix" appears to have been installed earlier today via the auto update of zypper. However, I had to manually install the x.23 version of TB as YaST and zypper did not see any upgrades to TB x.22.
As you gone back to the original openSUSE packages zypp decided not to offer you the updates which would have changed the vendor to buildservice. (is my guess)
You know, this plethora of repositories required to run openSUSE and to also keep being part of the "testing community" is really the Achilles Heel (or Hell?) of openSUSE. The Factory, the Build Service, the Community, the KDE:KDE4:/, the ..../Desktop, etc. and etc. repositories are really a big pain in the rearend. I have always been (since 1986) a person who keeps his OS (any OS) at the "bleeding edge" of development but the recent development in oS have got me really scratching my head as to which repositories I need to be using. It's not simply a matter of saying to me - and to others - "Just stay with the repos. when you installed a/the release version of oS" -- but this will not get 'you' the feedback re the OS which is what oS is all about. Without inferring any suggestion of "His **** is bigger than your ****", I recently installed a daily build of Kubuntu 9.10 (9.10 is work-in-progress as you would know). When I boot it up, I (may) get a message showing that there are updates available. I do not need to look at repos. or alter them (?so far). When there are updates/upgrades I do not have to have to make decisions (based more guesswork than understanding) to resolve dependencies -- like I now get in oS re the application k3b (because of KDE4.3 vs KDE3 versions). And why are these dependency hassles exist in oS? (because of the plethora of repos existing for oS?) OK, end of my (constrained) outburst :-) .
But all is working fine - no crashes.
good to hear!
Yep. Thanks again.
