Attempting to upgrade from an earlier Tumbleweed version that became unusable
after trying to install current updates (I ignored the lang-pack upgrades and
it knocked out my internet and the GUI is black and unresponsive). The upgrade
fails immediately with the error 'removal of package bind-utils failed'. The
detailed error is 'package bind-utils-9.10.4P5-31.4x86-64 is not installed'.
Rather than ignore this and risk making my system completely unusable I
aborted. The system is still running because I can get to a text console with
Alt-F2 and execute a shutdown -h now command successfully.
