i tried your method and found that i just had to remove the DVD repo... after that it worked just fine... [..] Ooops. I forgot the question mark. Wanted to ask if you had the DVD inside the drive?
No, I didn't have it, I did the following: As suggested, I kept the old version when starting "zypper dup" and at the end got the following error:
zypper dup .... Failed to mount cd:///?devices=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-PIONEER_BD-RW_BDR-209D on /var/tmp/AP_0x1WUpWh: Mounting media failed (mount: /var/tmp/AP_0x1WUpWh: no medium found on /dev/sr0.)
There's an easy workaround for stuff like this: just put the .iso file somewhere reachable and use that instead of the DVD.
==== /etc/zypp/repos.d/DVD.repo ==== [Tumbleweed_DVD] name=Tumbleweed_DVD enabled=1 autorefresh=0 baseurl=iso:///?iso=openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Current.iso&url=file:///path/to/iso/ path=/ type=yast2 priority=99 keeppackages=0 ====
Would that have solved the zypper dup complaints about "this requirement cannot be provided"? I don't see how to explain it. Maybe it is because the package disapeared in OSS, and the system solves the issue by wanting to install an old version instead of its new replacement with something different. Maybe the correct thing in TW is indeed disable the DVD (because it is way obsolete), and in that case it should be the default at installation time. Or a script should disable it a month later after install. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
