[opensuse] Getting package conflicts when upgrading to KDE4.2
I'm using openSUSE 11.1 with KDE4.1.3 and i'd like to update to KDE4.2. So i clicked on the link http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSU... expecting yast to do the rest for me. Instead i get a bunch of package conflicts like: - kde4-knewsticker-4.1.3-4.11.x86_64 requires kdepimlibs4 < 4.1.60, but this requirement cannot be provided - compiz-kde4-0.7.8-9.1.x86_64 requires libplasma.so.2()(64bit), but this requirement cannot be provided - kdelibs4-4.1.3-4.9.x86_64 requires libkde4 = 4.1.3, but this requirement cannot be provided Do i have to had another repo or something for this to go smoothly ? Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Some packages haven't been included in the kde 4.2 update repo, and those you have to remove, since they require kde 4.1 to run. kde4-knewsticker and compiz-kde4 for example aren't there, and those you have to remove. kdelibs4 on the other hand is there, so I'm not sure why you're seeing that. But remove kde4-knewsticker and compiz-kde4 before running the update. Don't remove kdelibs4 though Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Thanks, after i removed kde4-knwesticker and compiz-kde4 i got no more
conflicts and i have KDE4.2 running just fine now.
Still, the removal of compiz-kde4 forced the installation of
compiz-gnome and a bunch of gnome packages with it. And if i now try
to remove compiz-gnome it tells me that it will install compiz-kde4
again. My system is working fine but i don't need all these gnome
stuff installed. Any idea again ?
Thanks

Yes, you need to remove the "compiz" package. It is the top level package, and it requires at least one desktop specific package to be installed, so once you've removed that, you can remove compiz-gnome too without having to install compiz-kde There are a couple of secondary packages you also need to uninstall, such as libcompizconfig and compiz-manager, and you have to uninstall them all at the same time zypper rm compiz will do it all for you in one fell swoop :) Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
That did the trick.
Thanks again
