As I could remove those RPMs without conflict (on a different host with the same problem), I assume the problem is not in the RPM packages' metadata
So the packages may have been selected due to some weak dependency (i.e. 'recommended' by some other package that got installed, or the packages themselves 'suggest' being installed together with some other package).
Also interesting is that after removal of the undesired packeages a Yast online update does NOT suggest to install those packages again (So I'm having trouble with creating a resolver test case).
If they were introduced by a weak dependency, there needs to be a trigger-package (the one 'recommending', or the one being referred to by the 'suggests'). Once the trigger-package is installed nothing will happen. The next time the trigger-package is updated however, is the time where the weak dependency might be re-evaluated again.
Amazingly, zypper.log claims: 2017-09-12 08:46:45 <1> pcrz00066(10740) [libsolv] PoolImpl.cc(logSat):121 job: user installed gtk2-immodule-vietnamese
This is NOT the time the package was installed. It just indicates that the package was installed by a user-request (not automatically added by the resolver). This however contradicts the theory of having been added by the resolver as a weak dependency.
According to /var/log/zypp/history no package was installed today: # grep immodule /var/log/zypp/history 2017-09-11 11:03:10|install|gtk3-immodule-vietnamese|3.20.10-5.6.1|x86_64||download. opensuse.org- oss_1|c92d49f6b4e18cbe436fa1561a1f11c2f594f227c2bf8108698dfaae1e373614| 2017-09-11 11:03:10|install|gtk3-immodule-thai|3.20.10-5.6.1|x86_64||download.opensuse. org-oss_1|018d0fb46b89ed91ed9d9c43eeb62cd14b60244dc3047478ca8e9c6c03519b80| 2017-09-11 11:03:11|install|gtk3-immodule-inuktitut|3.20.10-5.6.1|x86_64||download. opensuse.org- oss_1|bd32f71da299725eac31039b7026ee5041b2a3bfba2ee2e66aec256610c95928| 2017-09-11 11:03:11|install|gtk3-immodule-amharic|3.20.10-5.6.1|x86_64||download. opensuse.org- oss_1|b37cb335c3e5a1181a02910bbf1211aeca701fa6297a03c789466383e12be075|
So '2017-09-11 11:03:10' is the time the packages were '|install|'ed. The history should also contain a line (somewhere above) telling which '|command|' was executed. Probably the yast online update. If you can attach the yast logs containing this command (or the zypper log in case it was a zypper command) I'll have a look at them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
