Reading installed packages...

The following packages are going to be REMOVED:
kernel-pae kernel-default kernel-default kernel-default kernel-default


After the operation, 283.9 M will be freed.
Continue? [YES/no]:


Stano mentioned that this is fixed in Factory. I use zypper from
zypp:svn. What do I need to do?

You need to tell zypper that it's ok to have multiple versions
of the kernel. I think it's done by adding

multiversion = kernel-pae, kernel-default

to /etc/zypp/zypp.conf, but I'm not sure.

Cheers,
Michael.

Thanks for the hint, it looks promising. Indeed the conf file has a
comment version of that. It doesn't seem to have any effect though.
Bug?
