Upgrade to 15.6 problem when uninstalling one package
I just finished an attempt to UPGRADE my ASUS laptop from 15.5 to 15.6 and the result is a mess! During the installation process I did run into one problem (see below) where YaST was unable to remove one package and I had to choose the IGNORE option in order to proceed with the rest of the installation. This problem continues to persist. After installation and reboot the laptop was able to bring up the KDE Wayland desktop. During the installation, and afterwards when I use YaST to install additional software I get the following conflicts error message - #### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2024-10-09 13:00:05 #### the to be installed apache2-mod_php7-7.4.33-150400.4.37.1.x86_64 requires 'php = 7.4.33', but this requirement cannot be provided not installable providers: php7-7.4.33-150400.4.34.1.x86_64[openSUSE:repo-oss] php7-7.4.33-150400.4.37.1.x86_64[openSUSE:update-sle] [ ] deinstallation of apache2-mod_php7-7.4.33-150400.4.37.1.x86_64 [ ] break apache2-mod_php7-7.4.33-150400.4.37.1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies [ ] Following actions will be done: deinstallation of php8-8.2.20-150600.3.3.1.x86_64 deinstallation of php8-cli-8.2.20-150600.3.3.1.x86_64 deinstallation of php8-xmlwriter-8.2.20-150600.3.3.1.x86_64 #### YaST2 conflicts list END ### When I choose the first option - deinstallation of apache2-mod_php7-7.4.33-150400.4.37.1.x86_64 I then get the following error message - Subprocess failed.

Oops!,I didn't mean to say the result is a mess! That was from a previous draft of this report. There was a problem going on that made using KDE almost impossible but it resolved itself after doing some further updates. Marc.... On 10/9/24 14:16, Marc Chamberlin via openSUSE Users wrote:

This looks like the simple result of a version change from php-7.4 to php-8.2 between 15.5 and 15.6. The php files only affect the ability for apache to serve php pages (or the off case where the php-cli is used to process post information). None of that should affect the workings of you computer other than as a web-server. The only problem there is if you have some web-application that doesn't support 8.2 (which is rare, changes from 7.4 to 8.2 were nowhere as significant as the 5.6 50 7.4 changes) Were it me, I'd just 'zypper rm apache2-mod_php7' or `rpm -e apache2-mod_php7` and then finish installing php-8.2 (if you need php at all) Good luck! -- David C.

That's not a problem, rather the reverse. You are uninstalling php, so the wise thing is to disable (rename) the configuration file. It is not wise to delete configuration files blindly. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.5 x86_64 at Telcontar)
