[Bug 617368] New: zypper: update lists packages 'NOT to be installed' that already are installed
From time to time zypper lists a range of packages 'NOT to be installed' when "zypper up". Funny enough all the listed packages are actually installed, so

Can you please check actual versions/archs of some of the packages (both installed ones and to-be-installed - hit 'v', then 'a', then 'g' at the Continue prompt)? If it's only architecture that is different there, then it's bug 600184 as you suggest in c#1. But if the version really differs, then all is probably OK. (In reply to comment #0)
Funny enough all the listed packages are actually installed, so the message is either wrong or actually means "NOT to be updated".
The message actually says "The following package _updates_ will NOT be installed", thus it means "will NOT be updated". -- 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.

Nonetheless the wording could be simplified, I'd say. -- 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.

I'm wondering though if the user might want to see a reason why packages are actually left out. -- 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.
