In Yast software management, the openprinting-splix the installed version 2.0.0-2lsb3.2 is displayed in red, which I don't recall seeing before. Red means its installed, but it has no source from which to get this package. Perhaps manually installed somewhere in the distant past perhaps?
Maybe install the splix package from opensuse repositories.
Version: 2.0.0.315-lp150.1.3 Provides: cups-drivers-splix >= 2.0.0.315 splix = 2.0.0.315-lp150.1.3 splix(x86-64) = 2.0.0.315-lp150.1.3
BTW, I get openprinting-splix from here: https://www.openprinting.org/driver/splix
If you download the rpm from "outside", the trick to have yast display them in black, not red, is as follows: Create a directory somewhere. For example {home}/Downloads/rpm_repo Put your external rpms inside. In YaST "Software Repositories" module add a repository that is a "local directory". From this point, YaST software manager and zypper will offer that new repository as source and will consider updates from it, too. As the packages come from an active repo, they will display in black. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
