An upgrade like this doesn't sound like a suppored setup to me. Over to the KDE guys to confirm. -- 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.

If you use it and you can't boot anymore afterwards or it accidentally wipes your hard disk, then this is "oh sorry, but your bad luck trying it". b) distribution update not being possible due to additional buildservice repositories being installed. I think this should work. I know the redcarpet solver cannot handle b) at all very well. there might be a hack possible for a distribution upgrade though (like e.g. preferring packages which were rebuild against the new distribution). if the release numbers of kdelibs3 from factory are lower than the release number of kdelibs3 in the buildservice for 10.2, then this is not our bug, as we can't influence the release numbers at all. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=305080#c8 --- Comment #8 from Christian Boltz 2007-09-03 06:03:57 MST --- (In reply to comment #7 from Dirk Mueller)

distro upgrade might work if it prefers packages from the "right distribution" even if release numbers say different.

Indeed, this would be the best solution. I would have chosen this if the conflicts dialog would accept my choice :-/

another possibility might be that the build service becomes more clever in selecting the release number (with an additional hint in the buildservice project).

This won't solve the problem because there are other package sources outside of the buildservice. (Yes, I know they are also unsupported.) And there might even be problems when using official packages - for example, I have kept agrep-4.0 from SUSE 8.2 (it was dropped after 8.2). Now it re-appared in the distribution with version number agrep-0.7... -- 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.
