A couple of betas ago, libexpat was upgraded from expat-1.95.8-5 to expat-2.0.0-3. There are two MySQL RPMs, mysql-querybrowser and a beta version of mysql-workbench, that require libexpat.so.0.

Where do those come from? They should not be part of our distro...

Sorry about that - I should have been more specific. They're RPMs downloaded directly from MySQL. Those are the only two non-Suse RPMs, however, that have needed expat-1 so it may be a non-issue.

Short of compiling from source, is there any other alternative? I assume I can't install both versions of libexpat.

Open a bugreport and ask for a compat-expat package with the libexpat.so.0 in it,

Thanks. Will do...
