Appears there have been several packages replaced but not removed from system in last few updates, re:
All of them are versionned library packages. With my bacgkground I'd say it is normal and expected. That is exact reason to create versionned package in the first place - so multiple versions can coexist.
I have removed all of the above w/o seeing any ill effects (so far).
Good for you. Now imagine you compiled a program using one of these versions ...
*If* I had, my system should have a *requirement* for *that* package which it did/does not. And the *extra* versions are not even available for download from software.opensuse.org now. They should have been removed when the newer packages were installed since there were no local requirements for them. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
