(This is the failing nscd update from bug #386591 btw.) When klick on "update system now", i get an error box saying "Failed to update system: Authorisation could not be obtained". Afterwards I cannot use zypper (as root) on the command line any more: ------------------------------------------------------- nirvana:~ # zypper lu A ZYpp transaction is already in progress. This means, there is another application using the libzypp library for package management running. All such applications must be closed before using this command. nirvana:~ # cat /var/run/zypp.pid 6608 nirvana:~ # ps axu | grep 6608 | grep -v grep root 6608 0.0 0.8 239412 35388 ? Sl 13:22 0:00 /usr/sbin/packagekitd nirvana:~ # --------------------------------------------------------- after killing the packagekitd, zypper works again.
