Has ollama-vulkan been removed from the repos?

So since a few weeks now I get the following error during zypper dup:

Problem: 1: nothing provides 'ollama = 0.30.6-1.2' needed by the to be installed ollama-vulkan-0.30.6-1.2.x86_64
 Solution 1: Following actions will be done:
  keep obsolete ollama-vulkan-0.30.6-1.1.x86_64
  keep obsolete ollama-0.30.6-1.1.x86_64
 Solution 2: deinstallation of ollama-vulkan-0.30.6-1.1.x86_64
 Solution 3: break ollama-vulkan-0.30.6-1.2.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

I always selected solution 1 and was waiting for ollama-vulkan to be updated, but it seems the package has been removed from the repos since I can’t find it on obs.
Do I not need this package anymore, and can I still utilize my amd gpu without it?

It didn’t get removed. It’s still in the OSS repo. You actually checked it yourself with the zypper commands you posted.
You can also look it up here: https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/x86_64/

ollama-vulkan is expecting ollama to be available in version 0.30.6-1.2 but it’s version number on the oss repo is 0.30.6-1.3.

As both packages got updated at the same time it seems like a mistake in the packaging for the oss repo to me.

Maybe file a bug report to gain attention of the maintainer?

Oh man, I really tried looking for a bug report or something at all on this issue, but couldn’t find anything. Thank you!
Sometimes the decentralized nature of opensuse and the foss community in general really is a bummer. It would be awesome to have some kind of search engine for anything opensuse related.

I’ll mark this as solved then, and thank you both again.
Guess I’ll keep pushing the button for a little while longer.

I also couldn’t find it yesterday. I used the standard search field on bugzilla but that’s apparently just looking for open reports. The relevant bug report is marked as resolved and therefore closed. Just tried again and could find it after going to “search” and changing the status from open to all.

I knew it… was wondering why I could never find anything on bugzilla.
That is a really strange default search behaviour, imo.

Well thank you for teaching me something new. :beers:
