http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=564239 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=564239#c6 --- Comment #6 from Michael Andres <ma@novell.com> 2009-12-15 11:47:29 UTC --- Bug 550915 fixes the case where a 'keep obsolete <package>' solution is not recognized, so the solver reports the same problem over and over again. That's the problem you describe. If you experience this behavior with libzypp-6.28.0, please attach a solver testcase (see comment#3) and reopen.
@zypper dup:
implies to my read that one should be able lock the dist repo out, and if no other repo offers an alternative, the manually-installed pkg should be left alone/accepted.
Handle with care. Installed packages not provided by any repo are considered to be orphaned. They stay on the system if not involved in any dependency problem. But in case of trouble, the solver will delete orphaned packages. -- 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.
