certainly one of that three processes are accesign to the rpm database, that message is expected in that case. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

I have waited up to 30 minutes and nothing.

certainly one of that three processes are accesign to the rpm database
The error message has nothing to do with the rpm database (/var/lib/rpm/Packages), it's about the zypp database (/var/lib/zypp/db). These are different databases. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Yes, that's right ;-) zypper might be accessing the zypp db then... -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
