I guess he talks about package mess with packman's ffmpeg which is arrived today. I "updated" to packmans ffmpeg-4-4.4-4.1 which is only provided in pacman repo (this version is staging mmedia:libs, while TW - is 4.3.2-1.1) and got all my multimedia codecs dead.

I thought opensuse wasn't going to support a 32-bit release anymore?
Even if, often, when I'm looking through a batch of proposed solutions, I'll see: "nothing provides 'XXYZ', so we wanna remove about 20 x86_64 products and change architecture to i586 despite the inferior architecture".
Huh?... why would it not be able to use an x86_64 version of the same? It's sorta annoying to have it keep offering to downgrade archs as a solution. I don't mind alt-vendors being suggested, but downgrading archs, not so keen on.
No, that's simply a side "misfeature" of the solver.
If there were no 32 bit versions, the solver will simply say there is no solution (as would happen with Leap). You basically have to interpret what it says and translate to "no solution".
So, to ask here, post the actual message error of what it is trying to install that it is missing.
