Note that in the theoretical case that it would be fixed in zmd, zmd might not be able to update itself because 1 broken dependency tends to block zmd from updating anything. Maybe the "install package manager updates first" thing works now, but last time I checked, it did not. Last time I had access to x86_64 hardware, the "keep the same arch" thing did _not_ work with yast2 online_update, it happily updated i586 packages to x86_64. Unfortunately I cannot test this now, maybe it works. Besides that, many users are not using yast2 and/or zmd any more these days, so you will get support requests about not working plugins and/or beagle extensions in any case, but you could declare them "invalid/worksforme because of using an unsupported package manager". However, this will be difficult to communicate because in previous cases where other package managers broke the system, it was because of their habit to install i586 packages on x86_64 systems. Now it's the other way round. There is also the case that MozillaFirefox might not be installed at all and the user selects it for installation, in that case YaST will pick what it thinks is the "better" arch: x86_64. So, the presence of an x86_64 MozillaFirefox really indicates that it is supported. But this case had been broken even before the online update... I really don't know what to do about this report. => "Other" -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
