In general explaining *why* packages are skipped would be more user friendly ...

zypper -vvv will provide more detailed info

No, it does not.

Well, it is presented as "increase verbosity" which *should* provide more details about whatever operation is attempted. Perhaps you can get better details by downloading subject kernel package and attempting to install it using rpm rpm -Uhvv <package> You could also include "--test" but rpm will not complete the operation as presented until asking your approval. -- (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

I seem to have stumbled upon the reason why it had not updated.

I checked my Tumbleweed, and it had not updated to 4.4.0-1.2. However, I had used "zypper dup". I tried again with "zypper dup -D", and it did not want to update the kernel.

This is a recent install, from 20160116. And I still had the installer image (on a USB) enabled as a repo. Kernel 4.4.0-1.1 is in that installer repo.

I do not have any local repository and dup offers to update (and remove ply packages) just fine. Again, the question is not how to install RPM - *that* I can manage, thank you. The question is how to debug dependency resolution and if it is possible to make zypper more user friendly in this case.

So I disabled that repo, and again tried "zypper dup -D".

This time, it did want to upgrade the kernel to 4.4.0-1.2. However, it also wanted to uninstall "libply2", "libply-boot-client2", "libply-splash-core2" and "libply-splash-graphics2". So there's possibly a bug in the dependencies of plymouth, that is blocking the kernel upgrade.
