So while I agree there is a bug, I wonder why it's a problem out of the sudden.

Yes, that's exactly how I discover it. When I try zypper dup after changing repos to 12.1. Josef -- Josef Reidinger Software Engineer Appliance Department SUSE LINUX, s. r. o.

So possibly only the 11.4 zypper sees the problem? That might explain why others don't see the problem.

No, I see the problem as well with a fresh install of b0039. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Greetings, Stephan

I'm pretty sure I had the same problem on a fresh install from net iso (build 39). I only clicked "ignore", thinking repos where not yet setup (and had too many other things to do to really notice) jd -- http://www.dodin.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
