Can't really tell yet, it only has been a few minutes... *but* i had to add a lock on the package libproxy1-pacrunner-mozjs because "zypper dup" would have installed it again, even though nothing seems to require it. -- 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'm pretty confident. Therefore closing as duplicate. Please reopen if it doesn't fix the issue.
*but* i had to add a lock on the package libproxy1-pacrunner-mozjs because "zypper dup" would have installed it again, even though nothing seems to require it.
Install libproxy1-pacrunner-webkit instead. That should make zypp happy. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 759123 *** http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=759123 -- 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.
