When updating pokerth, boost gets updated as well. Unfortunately, updating to boost 1.34.1 triggers removal of libzypp and zypper on both openSUSE 10.3 and 10.2 (other versions not tested). Using YaST software management to upgrade, one will get the resolver dialog warning that zypper and libzypp need to be removed in order to update boost. The problem lies in anybody using opensuseupdater to upgrade packages from repositories other than the update repo, in which case it will silently remove libzypp and zypper, thus creating the situation we had when somebody sneaking an untested boost update (to 1.34.1) into YOU removed libzypp/zypper and broke quite a few systems.
