I have problems with various pieces of Software that depend on openSuSE anything. Just today, I had "mrmonitord" (an LSI download rpm to monitor their raid cards), but the latest opensuse they provide compat for was SLES-10-SP3 -- where they needed libstdc++33-32bit-3.3.3-7.8.1.x86_64.rpm.
Yeah, we just got rid of libstdc++33 recently.

The binaries are over 9 years old, which means it is very unlikely that still software exists which needs them for runtime. And it only confuses customers, since no x86-64 version exist
Tell that to the lsi/Avagotech website that spun a new release earlier this year and included that dependency in their 2016 release of their SW. Personally, I find it more confusing to have their 2016-dated new release depending on something that I can't find, since now I have to try to find some old version of the SW and see if I can extract the needed libs and install them manually so their SW will run. And even though no x86-64 version exists, they still are shipping their SW for 64-bit platforms (a separate package for 32-bit SW exists). Talk about confused customers...*sigh*... :-( -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
