Leap 16 updates issues

Jniko · March 8, 2026, 8:44am

Hi to all,

From today’s updates I have some dependency issue and I am afraid of touching anything in case something brakes. Some help would be grateful.

Have a look:

sudo zypper up
Refreshing service 'NVIDIA'.
Refreshing service 'openSUSE'.
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...

The following 9 package updates will NOT be installed:
  libnvidia-gpucomp libvlc5 libvlccore9 nvidia-modprobe nvidia-persistenced vlc vlc-codec-gstreamer vlc-noX vlc-qt

No.1:

sudo zypper in libnvidia-gpucomp

'libnvidia-gpucomp' is already installed.
There is an update candidate for 'libnvidia-gpucomp' from vendor 'NVIDIA', while the current vendor is 'obs://build.suse.de/Proprietary:X11:Drivers'. Use 'zypper install libnvidia-gpucomp-595.45.04-lp160.4.1.x86_64' to install this candidate.

Nothing to do.

zypper in nvidia-modprobe

You want to install the nvidia packages of Verion 595.45.04, but this is the G07 driver.
So install explizit the Version for G06.

zypper in -f nvidia-modprobe-580.126.18-lp160.23.1

The second is a problem using vlc from Packman, Packman has a new Version 3.0.23, but some of your installed packages are from OSS and build with vlc Version from OSS 3.0.21.

Maybe you have to delete the phonon-vlc packages.

Jniko · March 8, 2026, 9:07am

For VLC I haven’t touched anything. Everything is on default and I am not using vlc from Packman…

For the nvidia-modprobe I have done it as you say, installed correct and after that is i use zypper up again is saying that have 9 updates that can not be installed.

My fault, its a problem that the phonon-vlc packages are not build against the new Version in OSS.

Sauerland · March 8, 2026, 9:17am

It’s a information, that newer packages are there, but can not be installed because of newer Version not suitable to the installed ones, a repo change or so on.

    Note: For an extended search including not yet activated remote resources please use 'zypper

As you can see, the first one is version 595.45.04 which means G07 driver…

Sauerland · March 8, 2026, 9:19am

The phonon-vlc is a bug
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1259338

Jniko · March 8, 2026, 9:22am

So far I can understand that this Nvidia issues both nividia-modprobe and nvidia-persistenced are basically NOT an issue and is just for informal because of a the new 595 driver.

Ok so for VLC we should wait until resolved I think…
