Yast shows I need updates of YaSt and other programs. Using YaST2 --> Software Management I can select updates but downloading gives the following errors:
Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic --- error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic
2008-04-01 16:05:56 yast2-trans-stats-2.15.0-69.noarch.rpm install failed rpm output: error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic
i know there wer comments on the mailing list about this but I have not found them in archive 9must be searching wrong)
Do "zypper in rpm" first, or use yast to just update rpm. Then continue updating as normal.

Thanks for the quick response. i tried using YaSt to update all the YaSt RPMS but got the same error on most of them. I'll try the zypper in rpm from the command line as root later today. Hope thats right, I'm just learning zypper. Always used YaST in the past. I like what I've seen of zypper, just need to learn all the features.
Using YaST: search for 'rpm' package and mark it to update to the latest version. Only this particular package. Then press "Accept". This should work without problems. Then you can update all other packages you are interested in.
