and fwiw: I see the same when I don't include "-v" which I normailly do: zypper -v rm konversation polari but your invocation also does not specify the version to remove. a guess, you have not "specified" a repository containing <package> so none is "defined". -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Why should I need to specify a repo for the package? That would be needed for installation, but not for removal.

ok, I just installed and removed konversation. and on the removal I specified the repo "-r <repo>" and still got the message. I have no idea why the comment is made or what it represents. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I see that on zypper rm as well and always just chocked it up to the fact I was removing local files and had not specified any particular version or repository to retrieve that information from. I think it is just zypper telling you that it's going to do what you say and since you haven't provided anything more than the package name, it's just going to get it from the rpm database and not anywhere external.

I used zypper so that it finds dependencies and also remove then automatically, like the language files. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I think that's a small bug in zypper. It never loads repositories when removing packages (see bsc#606220), as they are not needed when erasing packages. But in that case it should also not warn that no repositories are defined. (I.e. I think the defaultSystemSetup() call in RemoveCmd::execute() should use LoadTargetResolvables instead of LoadResolvables.) Can you please open a bug in bugzilla?
