http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1089355 Bug ID: 1089355 Summary: Kernel patch 7969-1 (reissue? of kernels 4.4.126) does not apply without conflict resolution Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.3 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: antoine.mechelynck@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de CC: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: Community User Blocker: --- I'm pasting below the output from (successively) zypper lu (showing an incoming patch but no packages to update), zypper up ("Nothing to do. Reboot necessary.") and zypper patch (needing interactive conflict resolution). I think the correct solution is #1 but what if I choose wrong? Will I end up with an unbootable kernel? linux-2iyu:~ # (zypper lu -t package -t patch || echo 'exit status' $? ; date ) 2>&1 |tee -a ~/zypper.log Loading repository data...
