Trying to upgrade to the latest internal rpm this morning (rev 181) from a factory box that hadn't been updated in a couple weeks I received the following error:
rpmlib(PayloadIsLzma) <= 4.4.2-1 is needed by rpm-4.4.2-181.x86_64
Presumably because the older rpm could not update itself because of the new payload requirements. Updating to the intermediate rev 179 that was available in the public channel worked around the problem. There are two potential issues:
1) People using zypp to upgrade factory may be halted from upgrades The question I have is if zypper will install rpm first - I guess it should as the payload should be a prereq.
So with some luck a bzip2 payload in rpm fixes the problem already.
and the more critical:
2) People on older distros may be unable to upgrade to 11.0 when it comes out.
For that reason neither zypper dup nor updates from within the system are supported. Meaning: you need either do a manual step to fix it or boot from medium to update.
