If in yast, on the 10.1 install, have you selected the option to reset any conflicts that have been set to be ignored? If there are any, maybe the 10.2 yast in the install gets confused.
Just something to try.
[...]
Perhaps you should rebuild your rpm database.
Tried both, no change... except that Yast on the 10.2 install system crashed with a core dump once during resolving, but I wasn't able to reproduce it. I'm installing on a Thinkpad, and the reason why I want to update is mostly because of the better power management in 10.2's kernel.
I was tempted using smart for a distribution upgrade, but hesitate since I can't afford sending this system to nirvana with a failed upgrade attempt.
So, you get to the point
I mentioned smart here because I wonder if there's something like smart dist-upgrade, like in apt. I only found spurious threads on distribution upgrading with smart in this list, which ended in discussion apt vs. smart. Has anyone actually done a system upgrade with smart?
