Thanks Dominique. Doing zypper in yast2-pkg-bindings produced: " Problem: yast2-pkg-bindings-3.1.27-1.1.i586 requires libzypp.so.1505, but this requirement cannot be provided uninstallable providers: libzypp-15.9.0-1.1.i586[tumbleweed_oss] Solution 1: deinstallation of libyui-gtk-pkg6-2.43.2-2.8.1.i586 Solution 2: do not install yast2-pkg-bindings-3.1.27-1.1.i586 Solution 3: break yast2-pkg-bindings-3.1.27-1.1.i586 by ignoring some of its dependencies "
libyu-gtk-pkg6 indeed no longer exists in Tumbleweed (YaST's GTK
interface has not been maintained in a long time). There are two
possibilities why this did not work here:
a) zypper has a bug - and did not realize that it should get rid of
this package, despite dist upgrade
b) you have repositories around that carry old packages (like an old
libzypp for example), which resulted in zypper seeing a valid option in
not having to remove the package.
Without you posting the repo list, 2 can't be ruled out.
If the repos are really all correct, and zypper dup indeed does not
propose the removal by itself, then this would be a zypper bug, worthy
to be reported.
