I was just able to reproduce the bug, with the package ktorrent-lang. I modified zypper-install as recommended in a comment above, and now know the reason why the command fails: opensuseupdater fails when the provider of a package changes. The new version of ktorrent-lang required a new version of ktorrent, which comes from a different source than the installed version. YaST simply installs the new version without question (does not ask for confirmation because of the change of provider), but opensuseupdater fails silently. A vendor change is treated like a dependency conflict. With the latest version of the updater applet the failed installation looks like this:
kupdateapplet output: --------
Operation was too complex: Problem: ktorrent-lang-3.1.2-0.pm.1.i586 requires ktorrent = 3.1.2-0.pm.1, but this requirement cannot be provided uninstallable providers: ktorrent-3.1.2-0.pm.1.i586 [http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/packman/suse/11.0/] Solution 1: install ktorrent-3.1.2-0.pm.1.i586 (with vendor change) SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Nuernberg, Germany --> packman.links2linux.de Solution 2: do not install ktorrent-lang-3.1.2-0.pm.1.i586 Solution 3: Ignore some dependencies of > ktorrent-lang
