http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1050970 Bug ID: 1050970 Summary: zypper dup --no-recommends removes installed lang packages Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp Assignee: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: w01dnick@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- ( By result of discussion in opensuse-factory: https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2017-07/msg00479.html Start of discussion: https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2017-07/msg00414.html ) When using to update openSUSE Tumbleweed this command zypper dup --no-recommends some lang packages are going to be removed. This happens not only for KDE lang packages (at least gstreamer-lang was noticed as candidate for removing), but it happens frequently for them. One example was shown in that discussion: 1. We have installed kio (5.35.0), kio-lang (5.35.0), bundle-lang-kde-en (for some reason there is no bundle-lang-kde-uk for Ukrainian). 2. Doing update via "zypper dup --no-recommends" Expected results: Updating kio to 5.36.0, kio-lang to 5.36.0 and bundle-lang-kde-en to 13.2-48.2. Actual results: Updateing kio to 5.36.0, bundle-lang-kde-en to 13.2-48.2 and removing kio- lang. Current example Installed state: zypper se -s akonadi-contact ...

Running zypper dup --no-recommends trying to remove this and some other KDE packages: The following 76 packages are going to be REMOVED: akonadi-contact-lang akonadi-mime-lang akonadi-notes-lang ... spectacle-lang systemsettings5-lang Full logs here: http://paste.opensuse.org/26973391 I'll try not to update for couple of days if some extra info is needed. In my opinion this is a bug as --no-recommends should prevent installing of new packages but not updating of already installed ones. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
