Could a dummy dependancy be used in 11.3, the kernel in x86_64 might rely on a package that's only distributed in x86_64. Or would 32 bit risk installing x86_64 arch packages to?
This is already solved, the 32bit kernels conflict with 64bit glibc, so you won't be able to install them. However, zypper search doesn't do any dependency calculation, so a search for kernel will also display the 32bit kernel-pae.
Yes, but if the x86_64 kernel requires a package, like the 64 bit glibc; and the 64 bit glibc requires something only the x86_64 kernels provide, then won't they become uninstallable for 32 bit versions? It's Jeff's problem with "kill off that class of bugs we see occasionally where a 32-bit kernel is accidentally installed on a 64-bit system". BTW Does anyone know what the zypp defaults are for mullti-version? There may be an error (or simply the comments should be updated), which makes it harder to have fall back kernel, for kernel-desktop. It looked like perhaps only kernel-default & kernel-smp are permitted by default to have multiple versions. *** zypp.conf 2009/11/13 00:27:41 1.1 --- zypp.conf 2009/11/13 00:31:27 *************** *** 314,319 **** --- 314,320 ---- ## diffent versions ## # multiversion = kernel-default,kernel-smp + multiversion = kernel-default,kernel-debug,kernel-desktop,kernel-pae,kernel-rt,kernel-zen ## ## Path to locks file.
