[opensuse-buildservice] Can't update x86_64 from KDE3 build service repos
Hi all, I was directed here to try and get help with a problem I encountered today. If this is the wrong place to ask for help, please let me know where I mgiht be able to go for assistance. I am using SuSE 10.0 x86_64 with KDE 3.5 updated from 3.4 via the build service. In the past I have been able to get updates using YaST without issue, but today when I tried to update to KDE 3.5.5 it wouldn't work and YaST wants to downgrade me to KDE 3.4.2 because of failed dependencies. The problem is YaST is only seeing the i586 rpms from the repo. Clicking on the "Versions" tab within YaST's Software Update window confirmed this fact. I have refreshed, deleted, and re-entered the build service repos in YaST several times but it just doesn't want to find the x86_64 rpms. Someone at suseforums.net suggested it may have something to do with the fact that /opt/kde3/share/apps/krpmview/media.1/products contains: / SuSE-Linux-user-i386 0.0.0 as opposed to something x86_64 related. I don't know how valid that idea is since I have had no problems updating in the past, but I am not an expert by any means. Does anyone have any ideas on how I might fix this problem?

the packages are there and they are also listed in the meta data. Does a refresh of the source help ? (YaST Source module)

this has nothing todo. And you use anyway YaST and not krpmview for updating,right ? bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I have tried refreshing, deleting and reinstalling the sources, and targeting the x86_64 folder directly. Nothing seems to work.
