Nothing to do.

The following packages are going to be reinstalled: libqjson0 marble
2 packages to reinstall. Overall download size: 2.9 MiB. No additional space will be used or freed after the operation. Continue? [y/n/?] (y): n
If "zypper dup --from kde4_factory" thinks that two packages need to be reinstalled (meaning they need to be "updated", just that the new packages have the same version and release number?) "zypper dup" should at least try to reinstall these same packages? With "--repo"
Dup does not update, it arranges the packages being installed from specific repositories. "zypper dup --from kde4_factory" will install the package from kde4_factory. If 'zypper dup' did not want to touch them, then you had the same version installed, but from a different vendor/repo. -- cu, Michael Andres +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Key fingerprint = 2DFA 5D73 18B1 E7EF A862 27AC 3FB8 9E3A 27C6 B0E4 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael Andres YaST Development ma@novell.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany, ++49 (0)911 - 740 53-0 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org
