Hi,
the Libreoffice problem was explained some time ago on this list. There seem to be some overall dependencies which let the build service recreate Libreoffice all the time.
Yes, I've been trying to only cause this to rebuild once a week at most, but due to the recent mixup with KDE, we got a few more rebuilds this past week.
The second one is not a Tumbleweed problem but a SUSE one. I even had this on a SLES 11 production system because I was so careless to install the updates without restarting the whole system.
And it's solved by a simple line in your zypper config file: multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel)
I think it is a huge problem and totally unneeded. Of course Ksplice would be great but until then I would suggest the Debian way or however it is called to install the Kernels in parallel and not replace the old one. I mean the only argument in favor of the SUSE style that comes to my mind is space and most systems have enough of it.
See above for how to do that. As for ksplice, no it would not work for us, the kernel changes we do are too "intrusive" like update to new minor releases, or major ones. Oh, and it seems the ksplice project is dead as well, so that too is a big issue with anyone using it :( thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
