Careful: Don't run this update under X.
This update killed the gdm session (session-c2.scope) during %posttrans
on my system. No login was possible any more, neither graphical nor
text nor ssh. Although I had zypper running under screen, the update
didn't finish.
My own fault, sure ... I had even realized that the X server was being
updated, but the other end of the involved synapses in my brain,
responsible for signaling "switch to text console before running
zypper!", somehow didn't fire. Too early in the morning, perhaps.
"snapper rollback" saved my back, I retried on the text console and all
went fine (but gdm's session was killed again and didn't come back).
