[opensuse-support] Bad repository data - how to handle?
Hi, I'm just trying to update my TW laptop to latest version. I also have quite some packages installed from the games repo. Unfortunately, the repo metadata seems corrupted. During download I'm confronted with tons of messages like Downloaded data exceeded the expected filesize '127.0 KiB' of 'http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/games/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64/x...'. Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i/...? shows all options] (a): r So I aborted, first tried to refresh, but it was up to date. So I disabled the games repo and started zypper dup again. Now I'm presented with 50 problems where it wants to switch stuff to another repo, which is just as PITA to answer as the previous situation. Looking at the zypper manpage I didn't find a switch to ease this situation, hoping for a switch like --always-keep-installed for such cases. Did I overlook something? Isn't there a more user-friendly solution than answering tons of dialog questions? :( Guess I'll skip the update for now.... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org

encountered same or very similar problem last night, delayed until this morning and proceeded w/o error. waiting appears to be the best present prospect :) -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org
