[opensuse] Odd update which keeps returning
Hello listmates, I have been having an odd update called "fileshareset" which keeps pestering me to install it. Problem is, when I tell opensuseupdater to install it, it doesn't install. See the update here: http://www.beris.nl/images/snapshot1.png Of course this sort of thing is not new, usually means there is a conflicting update. So I fire up Yast2 Software Management. However, when I look in there, there is no update for fileshareset. I already have the latest version, as can be seen here: http://www.beris.nl/images/snapshot2.png So I am a bit stumped. Where is this mystery update coming from? Any ideas? Thanks, Joop

When I look in Yast2 > Software Management, this update is *already* installed. At least, the version number of the installed fileshareset is the same as the version of fileshareset that the opensuseupdater wants to install. It's also the highest available version on the KDE 3 Core Packages repo from openSUSE. Trying to install it through Yast2 > Online Update, gives me 22 failed dependencies, to which the solution is to downgrade several KDE 4 packages from version 4.1.3 to 4.0.4. Obviously that is headed in the wrong direction. However, when I downgrade KDE 4 packages to their original version, I can install the fileshareset patch. Of course, then the opensuseupdater comes back with several updates for KDE 4...the packages that were just downgraded. That gets me in a circle. :-( Could it be a repository conflict? A screenshot of all my configured repositories is attached. I'm stumped... Anyone? Joop
