Does this mean that libzypp is the only thing I have to upgrade? For long, YOU has not worked for me. I always manually download RPMs via FTP and install them. I see ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/suse/update/10.1/rpm/i586/libzypp-1.1.0-1.11.i58 6. rpm so I can download and install this. Is that all?
Well I downloaded libzypp-1.1.0-1.11.i586.rpm and libzypp-zmd-backend-7.1.1.0-42.21.i586.rpm and when I try to install it, I get:
chandas:/home/samjnaa/ab/suse-official # ls latest-kde libzypp-1.1.0-1.11.i586.rpm libzypp-zmd-backend-7.1.1.0-42.21.i586.rpm original-only-on-ftp chandas:/home/samjnaa/ab/suse-official # rpm -Uvh libzypp* error: Failed dependencies: libzypp.so.0 is needed by (installed) yast2-ncurses-2.13.27-3.i586 libzypp.so.0 is needed by (installed) yast2-perl-bindings-2.13.4-17.i586 libzypp.so.0 is needed by (installed) yast2-pkg-bindings-2.13.68-4.i586
*Now* what do I do?
If you want to install the rpm files one by one and not deal with dependency issues then use rpm -Uhv --force --nodeps filename.rpm
This is probably the worst thing to do to install rpm packages and it is the surest way to tank your installation. Dependencies are there for a reason, so that all required libraries are installed to support the program. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
