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?

Maybe. The behavior should be that if the package can be installed in parallel in multiple versions, it must be marked so in the metadata.

For those packages then libzypp will use the multiversion value into account.

This flag does work for installation only. mls has added the delete feature to the SAT solver
last week too. I will update libzypp today.

Greetings
Stefan
