I wanted to try an upgrade from 42.[1,2,3] to 15.0, which has little in the way of optional repos available, including no KDE3. So I tried it keeping KDE3 for 42.3.
# rpm -q --whatrequires libsnmp30 no package requires libsnmp30 # rpm -e libsnmp30 error: Failed dependencies: libnetsnmp.so.30()(64bit) is needed by (installed) sane-backends-1.0.24-4.40.x86_64 libnetsnmp.so.30()(64bit) is needed by (installed) kdeutils3-3.5.10-127.4.x86_64
Am I misunderstanding "whatrequires"?
It seems libsnmp30 may be the blocker causing this failure: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1067737 "zypper cannot dup, in, or up"
Could I be on the right track thinking libsnmp30 is the upgrade obstacle?
If I let kdeutils3 remain installed "broken", what if anything would stop working (besides sane, which I don't use)?

Yes. This may be one of the cases where a "recommends", or "optional depends" is causing the problem. (the technical RPM verbiage escapes me right not)
We need to get a kde3 repo for 15 started, and incorporate some of the tde upgrades that have not yet made it into the suse-kde3 patch set. I recall a TLS patch a couple of months ago that would be a wanted patch.
I booted my Arch drive on the laptop and updated plasma to current git codebase -- that's enough motivation to make sure we get kde3 tidied up for 15. Yuk.... SuSE drive going back in now :)
