NEED HELP

Hi
If you create a test user and login as them, does the issue follow?

Unfortunately, yes.

Hi
If you disable all your added extensions, if you open Firefox and go to;
GNOME Shell Extensions

Then ‘allow’ if blocking, then go to the installed extensions tab and they probably all need updating, else temporarily disable.

Open a gnome-terminal and run;


gnome-control-center --overview

Does that start it up, or are there errors?

What repositories do you have and did they all switch?


zypper lr -d

Big thanks for helping to solve my problem…
So, I try tunr off and turn on all my extensions and they are already updated…

Then I run command (with error):


gnome-control-center --overview
gnome-control-center: relocation error: /usr/lib64/samba/libauthkrb5-samba4.so: symbol tevent_req_is_unix_error, version TEVENT_UTIL_0.0.1 not defined in file libtevent-util.so.0 with link time reference

And this is my huge list of repos:
https://ghostbin.com/paste/r2jwy

Hi
So you need to change all those 42.1 repos to 42.2 (edit with YaST Software Repositories), ones not using disable and try a dry run with;


zypper ref
zypper -vv dup -D

With the -vv option it will show what is going to change etc (with those repos could be a big list…) also use a tty for the above zypper dup once changed (press ctrl+alt+F1)

Good luck…

Oh, your error looks like this Tumbleweed bug;
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=975862

maybe you have pulled samba from one of the many repos you have and
still broken/not updating…

OK, I edit all repositories to:
https://ghostbin.com/paste/zjyzn
but when I try zypper -vv dup -D command in tty, all of 360 new packages is **skipped.
**What now?
Normal DUP?
EDIT/
Im not sure what to do with samba server…

Hi
So is it updating packages as in switching?

I would also disable repo 5 and any others not really needed at this point as you can add them back in one at a time…

And now I’m getting lost.
zypper -vv dup -D

Hi
Try -vvv (three v’s) does it show you the ones (69) changing vendor?

At the end of the day with all those repos active… your call as to whether or not to run with it…

If you disable them all except the openSUSE 42.2 ones oss, non-oss and update what results do you get with the dup command?

enabled repos.


openSUSE:Leap:42.2

Hi
Quite a few more to downgrade etc… your call at the end of the day… you would then need to figure out what you installed from where on openSUSE Leap 42.1…

:wink: hmm even system reinstall is a option…

Hi
Might be the best solution… think about this going forward for the upgrade to 42.3… If your just getting an rpm from here and there I would suggest just download and add a local plain rpm repo to dump them into (and maybe a text file with where they came from)…

OK, big thanks for your help. Have a nice day…
