[opensuse] smart conflict
Hello SuSE people, Was trying to download and install some packages with smart. Got this error message: error: file /usr/bin/test_physfs from install of physfs-1.0.1-32 conflicts with file from package physfs-1.0.1-32 How can there be a conflict in those packages? Also, as an aside, Can anybody point me to a FAQ or small tutorial on smart? Need to find out how to hold packages back and other features.

I wouldn't be suprised if the packager developed them using different builds of binaries. It sees them as different so says there's a conflict. You might have gotten them from various sources.

Thanks for replying Kai Nope, Got them from Packman or was it Guru? Anyway, side by side. Doesn't mean that your guess is wrong though. Guess will just have to wait awhile and try again.

Here you go!
Yep, knew about them. Actually the latter is very good but does not tell me what I need too know. What I am trying to find out is how to keep my old kernel after a kernel upgrade. The last few upgrades smart replaced the kernel even though it is flagged multi-version. Trying to determine if the flag "lock" will allow a new kernel to be installed and still keep the old one.

You are talking to the "googliest googler" of them all. Thanks for your input. Bob S -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Okay, didn't even know you *could* do such a thing. In any case, you can probably get more answers on the smart mailing list. smart-subscribe@labix.org or http://lists.labix.org/listinfo.cgi/smart-labix.org HTH! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
