https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448688 Summary: Over-aggressive zypper with lang packages Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: vuntz@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- bundle-lang-gnome-fr has this in the spec file: ====== Provides: libgweather-lang = %(rpm -q --queryformat '%{VERSION}' libgweather-lang) Provides: locale(libgweather:fr) ====== This a bundle package to replace the lang packages of usual GNOME packages. However, sometimes (especially when you do development), you need to install libgweather-lang (because bundle-lang-gnome-fr doesn't provide the right version). So sometimes, I have to install libgweather-lang with the rpm command. But I can't remove it with zypper. Do the following: $ zypper in bundle-lang-gnome-fr $ wget http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/suse/i586/libgweather-lang-2.2... $ rpm -Uvh libgweather-lang-2.24.1-1.14.i586.rpm $ zypper rm libgweather-lang So the expected result is that zypper is nice and removes libgweather-lang. However, the end result is: ====== Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Resolving package dependencies...
