The log file doesn't show any line that contains "[package]update-test-affects-package-manager-99.99-99.99.noarch".

Maybe there's problem with (non-)broken dependencies - I had installed the updated test packages in beta2 and downgraded them again in beta3 to test the updater. So it could be that the _patch_ is still installed, but with the old, to-be-upgraded update-test packages. This leads to the guessed reproducer: - install the update-test patches and packages - downgrade the packages again, using the version tab in YaST - try to update with opensuseupdater-kde (or zypper) -- 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.

# /usr/bin/zypper -q --terse --non-interactive in -l -t patch --name update-test-affects-package-manager You are a good detective.

This leads to the guessed reproducer: - install the update-test patches and packages - downgrade the packages again, using the version tab in YaST - try to update with opensuseupdater-kde (or zypper) I tried this but everything works without bugs.

- downgrade update-test-affects-package-manager _package_ to 0-1.3 again, using the version tab in YaST. IMPORTANT: Do NOT uninstall the _patch_ even if the conflicts dialog tells you to do so - choose "ignore dependency". (I'm quite sure there wasn't a conflict when downgrading the update-test packages directly after the upgrade to beta3, but have no idea why...) Downgrading doesn't work on my system without uninstalling. There is no option to "ignore dependencies". (see screenshot)

I have thought that we are using "by name" installation since Beta3 ?

Nope, since Beta3plus (or RC1). Current svn should work all right, if only that was the problem. -- 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=309267#c25 --- Comment #25 from Duncan Mac-Vicar 2007-09-18 03:48:09 MST --- Some hints. I am not sure if we are marking the patch explicitly for installation or injecting requirements in the solver. And I forgot which method is by default and which one required a cmd line option. The logs show that the patch is inserted via dependencies, the solver has this dependency fullfilled even if the patch is incomplete. Even if the patch is marked explicitly as for install, this line 279 in zypper-misc.cc: if (installer.installed_item && installer.installed_item.resolvable()->edition() == installer.item.resolvable()->edition() && installer.installed_item.resolvable()->arch() == installer.item.resolvable()->arch()) { cout_n << format(_("skipping %s '%s' (already installed)")) % kind_to_string_localized(kind,1) % name << endl; } Will skip the patch if it is already installed, not testing if it is broken or incomplete to reinstall 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.
