Hello, trying to update and I get a seemingly endless conflict chain (5+ deep before I aborted- ). Is there an issue with updates, or do I have a messed up install? Not sure why they say private api.
I had a similar issue a while back in this thread (July) which was resolved until today
thanks again

Solution 1: deinstallation of python311-PyQt6-6.5.2-1.2.x86_64
Solution 2: keep obsolete libQt6Core6-6.5.3-2.1.x86_64
Solution 3: break python311-PyQt6-6.5.2-1.2.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies
Yea, the link you referenced … I remember those days
So your link has a reply with yet another link (my reply #1), which for some folks, is the solution … to get rid of all the “extraneous” python mess (multiple versions, etc)
Here’s my link that yours points to (actually another user gave some details about the clean up):
thon310 can be removed from most installations. Python311 has been around for quite some time to replace it. Zypper dup to 20231013 worked just fine here today, but python310* was already gone before I started.
Presumably you want to keep calibre. You may lock it until fixed:
There was an API change in Qt 6.6 which affects multiple packages. You will have to either
lock the update to Qt6.6 or delete the affected packages and wait for them to be updated.
I can remove calibre- I moved it to a raspberry pi.
I went to yast and removed calibre, but all the errors still exist. I Sit as simple as just choosing to deinstall the problem python programs?
thanks
