[opensuse] 11.0 opensuse-updater - No backend - No matter what I Install??
Listmates, I am pulling my hair out. Opensuse updater applet is broken. I continually gives the error that *NO* backends are installed and that I need to install one and restart the updater -- what?? (I know that's crap because Yast2 -> online update works just fine). So I have uninstalled and reinstalled: 17:06 dcrgx:~> rpm -qa | grep updater kde4-opensuse-updater-0.7.17-6.2 17:06 dcrgx:~> rpm -qa | grep zypp libzypp-devel-4.28.1-0.1 ruby-zypp-0.4.6-5.1 libzypp-testsuite-tools-4.2.3-6.1 zypper-0.11.11-0.1 ruby-zypptools-0.2.0-1.1 libzypp-4.28.1-0.1 17:06 dcrgx:~> rpm -qa | grep rpm rpm-4.4.2-199.1 patchrpm-1.1-110.1 deltarpm-3.4-78.1 rpm-python-4.4.2-247.1 rpm-devel-4.4.2-199.1 rpmkey-packman-0.3.8-0.pm.1 rpmrebuild-2.2.1-12.1 krpmbuilder-1.2-254.1 rpmlint-0.82-53.1 17:07 dcrgx:~> rpm -qa | grep yum yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-72.1 yum-basearchonly-1.1.13-15.1 yum-3.2.14-15.2 No matter what I do, I get: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/openSUSE_bugs/110/zyppbackend.png This is a brand NEW 11.0 (kde 3.5) install.

Anybody? I don't know where to start on this one. Obviously some link isn't being made to tell the updater app that libzypp is there and working, but I haven't a clue where that might be missing on the system. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

weird, with zypper around, it should be able to use the zypp backend. On 11.1 you need one of: kde4-kupdateapplet-packagekit kde4-kupdateapplet-zypp I'm not sure about 11.0, CCing Thomas.

I'd try to install also updates, in case this is a bug for which an update was released.

Yes, it's real weird.

There is no freaking libzypp package available. Only source packages??? I guess that explains it, but why isn't there a regular package available?

I'm not sure about 11.0, CCing Thomas.
This is a brand NEW 11.0 (kde 3.5) install. The only thing that looks out of place is "kde4-opensuse-updater". Is there a link that isn't being made by the kde4 package that is preventing the updater app from finding its backend? Is there some sysconfig setting that isn't set?

I had something like this a while ago. I reinstalled Yast, *zyp* and all related libs etc. I think a module got out of step somewhere along the line. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
