[Bug 416545] New: PackageManager removes 'my installation' in some cases
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=416545 Summary: PackageManager removes 'my installation' in some cases Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dominique.leuenberger@tmf-group.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Community User Hi, I have the following situation (for sure not optimal, but I need it like this): - Have Novell Client Installed. For this to work, I needed some symlinks and had to install some of the provided RPMs with --nodeps -> so far so good. whenever Yast now detects that 'something(tm) is missing' (like when I go to Remote Administration, and activate it, wheras before it was not active) it is going to pull in the required packages (which is desired) BUT also will remove my installation of Novell Client, as not all dependencies of it are satisfied. This is completely not desired and the PM should not touch dependencies which have nothing to do with it's current task (installing vnc in this example). -- 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.

What this bug will not survive is the fact that is being reported by an experienced community member and it has no logs. Please attach a solver testcase. http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST (you should know that ;-) ) -- 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.

I just tried to reproduce this behavior on openSUSE 11.1beta4 (Factory) and in fact it behaves te way I would like it to: if I add some other packages, it is not trying to remove my broken deps. I can try to find a oSS 11.0 machine and try to spuuly the logfiles... but the fact that it seems solved in a newer version of libzypp/zypper makes the whole thing appear rather useless to me. I leave the call on 'NEEDINFO' in order to find the logfiles, but I leave it at your judgement to decide if we should already close it.

I don't have a system anymore showing this effect and on 11.1 Factory, the problem does not arise anymore... so let's not waste time on this one. -- 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.
