However, the configuration file that came with 11.2 contradicts you: ... Now, both you and Marcus say that only 11.3 and beyond have that feature. Then why does 11.2 says it has it if it doesn't?
libzypp-6.21.2-1-1-1 that shipped on the 11.2 DVD contains zypp.conf timestamped 2009/11/02 containing: ## Packages which are parallel installable with ## diffent versions ## # multiversion = kernel-default,kernel-smp On my 24/7 11.2 system I do have a significantly larger zypp.conf.rpmnew timestamped 2010/04/13 containing: ## Packages which can be installed in different versions at the same time. ## ## Packages are selected either by name, or by provides. In the later case ## the string must start with "provides:" immediately followed by the capability. ## ## Example: ## kernel - just packages whith name 'kernel' ## provides:multiversion(kernel) - all packages providing 'multiversion(kernel)' ## (kenel and kmp packages should do this) ## Valid values: ## Comma separated list of packages. ## ## Default value: ## empty ## # multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel) The version of zypp.conf I'm actually using on my 24/7 11.2 system uses the earlier syntax, which works. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
