Hi,
currently, many packages in repositories based on openSUSE:Leap:15.{4,5} fail with the above error message. See e.g. [1] for quite some occurences. Another affected base repository is openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP5.
Repositories based on openSUSE:Leap:15.{4,5}:Update are fine.
Some projects have worked around this by adding "Prefer: icu-devel" to their project config, while SUSE:SLE-15-SP4:Update [2] has:
--- #request by dcermak 2023-01-25 #modified request by fvogdt 2023-01-27 #modified request by dmueller 2023-09-15 Prefer: -libicu60_2 -libicu69 -libicu-suse65_1 ---
The current state is IMHO quite messy, and leaving this up to the individual projects is wrong. The packages inherited from openSUSE:Leap:15.5 should be in a consistent state, without need for any local fixups.
So, can someone please add the actually correct lines to the relevant base projects?
Does this also happen if you use openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP5:Update? We set this in SUSE:SLE-15:Update: # darix added 20230911 requested by meissner Prefer: libicu73_2-devel And this config should inherit through all of the project chain if you use :Update Ciao, Marcus
