I have been trying to do an update for the last couple of days and am getting a bad error. I don’t know how to resolve it.

Problem: nothing provides ‘this-is-only-for-build-envs’ needed by the to be installed ffmpeg-6-mini-libs-6.0-1

There are many pages of error messages. I will provide a few here for your reading pleasure

There’s an earlier thread on this:

The earlier thread reports that the problem has now been fixed.

3

I still have the problem as of 1/20/24 at 14:16.

I stared at the YAST software repositories but it is not clear to me how I switch repositories.

4

Do you have autorefresh for packman repo enabled? If not enable it or do a zypper ref…

5

I did a “zypper ref” and nothing changed.

6

Please do not tell it, post the whole with the complete commandline:
as root:
zypper dup

Also
zypper lr -d

7

Also as I can see:
too many Repos…

Please use Code-Tags for the output:

The problem is solved. Here is the summary:

Repo Packman still has the problem.

“zypper dup” suggested using the opensuse repo instead of Packman (option 3). That fixed the problem.

I assumed that the “problem is fixed” meant that the repository was fixed and nothing needed to be done. Changing the repo was still required.

Thank you for your help.

I have the latest snapshot installed and just tried to do a zypper dup right now and I have no conflict at all with packman repository enabled on my side.

Packman doesn’t seems to be the issue here for you and looking at the home:junknot repository listed in your logs it is more likely to be your issue.
