Thank you Michael, I had to completely remove packagekit & apper in order to gain control of two different systems here OpenSUSE 12.2 KDE 64bit & OpenSUSE 12.2 KDE 32bit.

As said in comment#11 zypper sends a SuggestDaemonQuit via dbus-send. The zypper logs I got so far don't show any error in executing this. I suppose this is more a dbus or PackageKit issue. @Vincent: Do you know how one can figure out if PK actually got this signal from dbus? -- 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.

Hrm, I can't say if there's a way to do this :/ I see PackageKit is using g_debug() to output some debug messages, so maybe settings G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all and manually starting PackageKit could help. But it's likely that PackageKit is simply busy doing something (refreshing repos?), which is why it wouldn't quit. -- 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.

But that is what zypper should do (when it asks to do, already): killing the job, even he is busy.

Yes but the _problem_ is that Packagekit is "doing something" for inappropriate lengths of time. In my experience on KDE installs of OpenSUSE 12.1/2 KDE the user/administrator cannot use his/her package manager of choice _frequently/regularly_ due to packagekit. Is finally this clear now? In the many many forum posts the standard advice is inevitably to give up asking for a fix from the dev's but to kill packagekit & remove it from the system. -- 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.

As said in comment#11 zypper sends a SuggestDaemonQuit via dbus-send. The zypper logs I got so far don't show any error in executing this. I suppose this is more a dbus or PackageKit issue. @Vincent: Do you know how one can figure out if PK actually got this signal from dbus? -- 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.

Hrm, I can't say if there's a way to do this :/ I see PackageKit is using g_debug() to output some debug messages, so maybe settings G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all and manually starting PackageKit could help. But it's likely that PackageKit is simply busy doing something (refreshing repos?), which is why it wouldn't quit. -- 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.

But that is what zypper should do (when it asks to do, already): killing the job, even he is busy. A 'killall packagekitd' does not care whether a job is busy or not. -- 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.

Yes but the _problem_ is that Packagekit is "doing something" for inappropriate lengths of time. In my experience on KDE installs of OpenSUSE 12.1/2 KDE the user/administrator cannot use his/her package manager of choice _frequently/regularly_ due to packagekit. Is finally this clear now? In the many many forum posts the standard advice is inevitably to give up asking for a fix from the dev's but to kill packagekit & remove it from the system. -- 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.

We want to try to relax this for 12.3, so zypper and PK will collide less frequently. Ideally only if both want to actually install packages at the same time. -- 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.
