[opensuse] Upgrading from GNOME:STABLE and KDE:KDE3 repositories messed up the system for the 1st time
I use openSUSE 10.2 / GNOME and every month I upgrade the system from the repositories GNOME:STABLE and KDE:KDE3 using the mirror from http://ftp.skynet.be. The upgrade always goes smoothly with no problem. However, yesterday after upgrading and rebooting the system, yast and zypper wouldn't work anymore. Besides, almost all blue artwork (desktop wallpaper, GNOME splash screen, GDM theme) from oS 10.2 turned into the green one from oS 10.3. I have done this upgrading process several times, but this is the 1st time that such a problem takes place. I use the repositories for oS 10.2, not the ones for oS 10.3. http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/software.opensuse.org/GNOME:/STABLE/openSUSE_10.2/ http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/software.opensuse.org/KDE:/KDE3/openSUSE_10.2/ What is happening?

What is happening?
the blue artwork->green is normal, since we changed it for 10.3, not sure what's up with yast and zypper, since they are not part of the GNOME:STABLE repo. When you say they don't work, is that just the GTK frontend, or can you run them on the command line (yast for the console version) ? -- Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo@novell.com> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Neither yast graphical front-end nor zypper in the text console work at all. The system claims that libboost and libicuui aren't available and yast2-ncurses must be reinstalled. However, before upgrading all these files were already installed; after upgrading they were all gone, even though boost and libicu packages weren't removed during the process.
