I'm trying to install perl-IO-Compress from OBS, but it says I need perl 5.14.2
The strange thing is I have perl 5.14.2, so I'm confused. If anyone can tell me what's going on, I'd appreciate it.
Hmm, I am getting something similar, with the devel:languages:perl repo enabled: root:~ # zypper in perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Resolving package dependencies... Problem: perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.045-1.1.i586 requires perl = 5.14.2, but this requirement cannot be provided Solution 1: do not install perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.045-1.1.i586 Solution 2: break perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib by ignoring some of its dependencies Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c] (c): c root:~ # rpm -q perl perl-5.14.2-1.9.i586 I downloaded the perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib rpm and tried to install directly with rpm and got an error: error: Failed dependencies: perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib is obsoleted by (installed) perl-5.14.2-1.9.i586 I don't really have an answer I'm afraid, it appears to be something to do with inconsistent packages in devel:languages:perl and you may want to try CPAN as suggested by Dave if you can't wait for it to be fixed. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
