The problem seems to be some strange locks on the x86_64 version (and not the i586 version) of libpixman/libpciaccess. Please check /var/lib/zypp/SoftLocks. (There might be a bug here, I've got to ask Michael Andres tomorrow.) Anyway, zypper dup -r is really not recommended for exactly the reasons you saw: packages that are not found in the repository are treated as "orphaned", the solver is free to delete them if they no longer fit into the system. The upcoming 'zypper dup --from' won't have this problem anymore, as the solver sees all repositories. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
