Get the packages from

and update to them. Afterwards, make sure you restart zmd (rczmd restart)
In the i586 directory there are over 50 RPMs. Do you happen to know which ones should be installed, and in what order?
Get the ones called .i586.rpm, for example with a command like wget ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/aj/10.1-packagemanagement-update-test/rpm/*.i586.rpm Then do rpm -Fvh *.rpm in that directory. This will update only the packages you already have installed, and it will handle the order as well in another mail I saw you did rpm -i, but that is only for installing rpms you don't already have installed. Updating is done with either -U or -F (the difference is that -U will install packages if you don't already have them installed, and -F will only update if you already have them) I also saw you used --force. Never ever *ever* under *any* circumstances use --force In short, using -i and --force to update rpms is a recipe for disaster
