I’ve recently installed 12.1 64bit.
I did all the updates as of yesterday, but there’s one update that keeps coming up that can’t be updated because the package was not installed. Why would want to update a program that isn’t here?
It’s: opensuse 2012-202 hdjmod: fixed USB hotplugging
How can I stop it from looking for it?
I tried installing it so it would be there and I get this:
dave@linux-7sg4:~> su
Password:
linux-7sg4:/home/dave # zypper in hdjmod
Loading repository data…
Reading installed packages…
‘hdjmod’ not found in package names. Trying capabilities.
No provider of ‘hdjmod’ found.
Resolving package dependencies…
Nothing to do.
linux-7sg4:/home/dave #
Why would I get this update for a program that’s not there and you can’t install it?
Hi. Try this command:
zypper in -t patch openSUSE-2012-202
here’s what it said:
dave@linux-7sg4:~> su
Password:
linux-7sg4:/home/dave # zypper in -t patch openSUSE-2012-202
Retrieving repository ‘Packman Repository’ metadata [done]

maybe this will fix it. Thanks.
today there was 23 more updates and everyone works except this hdjmod… it still comes up yet it doesn’t exist. How can I get it off the list? The command you gave me didn’t work.
This is reported as a bug:
Apper reports update of an package over and over again
A screenshot is also attached.
Still no update on this bug?

Do not use apper, the standard recommendation is to remove it.
