Listmates, There are a couple of packages in factory that are causing dependency hell for 11.0. For some reason someone named many of the kde packages with very, very high minor numbers that take priority over newer packages. An example is: /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/python-kde4-4.3.80-11.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/kdelibs4-4.3.80-197.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/kdelibs4-core-4.3.80-197.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/libkde4-devel-4.3.80-197.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/libkdecore4-4.3.80-197.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/libkde4-4.3.80-197.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/kdelibs4-doc-4.3.80-197.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/libkdecore4-devel-4.3.80-197.1.i586.rpm /var/cache/zypp/packages/kde4/i586/kdebase4-runtime-4.3.80-166.2.i586.rpm There are a number of .80, .93, etc.. packages that cause python and a bulk of kde4 to be uninstalled based on dependency conflicts. Especially if you have kde43 as a repository. Right now the newest kde4 is 4.3.4-xxx. There should NOT be any packages in the repository numbered 4.3.80? Where did the other 76 minor releases go?? Granted this will not hit you unless you have factory enabled. But judging from prior posts, that ain't a small number.. What say the powers that be? Dependencies are bad enough to deal with without having whacky numbers thrown in the mix. Is there are chance those (and the other high numbered packages) can be renumbered correctly to 4.3.3-80 (or whatever the proper minor is) instead sitting in the repo as 4.3.80? -- David C.
