See that's something *I* would've been a little wary of. I've had things go pretty wrong, by 'just symlinking' some version of some lib, to a different version... which reminds me:
The link you created probably isn't doing anything bad, but I'd suggest removing it anyways. Since your zypper is now at the 'current' version, the link shouldn't be neccessary anymore, and it might cause confusion at some later stage...
I ran into this as well, (on a machine that had a clean install of 11.2 some months ago. Not only did zypper die, but so did Yast software management. ldd /usr/bin/zypper revealed a missing libzypp.so.619 Wary or not, there was virtually no other way to repair the system other than descending into rpm hell. For many naive users this is a PERMANENT breakage. Their opensuse distro is forever blocked from correcting itself, and they are forever blocked from fixing it without some friendly guru to help out. The one thing that MUST not break. It broke simply by running the software updater. -- _____________________________________ At one time I had a Real Sig.
