Red packages

Hi!
What happened with the repos(yeah I know, repos. are actually stupid things on openSUSE and everybody have problems with them)???
Today I’m searched for some packages in YaST, and I found all of my KDE 4.1.2 version numbers (Installed (Available)) in red. The installed versions are 4.1.2-…, but the available version are 4.0.x.
Why? I’m installed these packages from the same repo. Arrgh…

Hi
I would imagine if your using the redirector (download.opensuse.org)
your mirror may be offline.

Hmm, interesting.
I’m checked my repo list. All KDE repositories are beginning with download.opensuse.org.
I can reach these sites with web browser, so I think they aren’t offline.
Index of /repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSUSE_11.0 is online too, and the version numbers are matching with my version numbers, but I still can’t see them in YaST

Hi
I would look at using a mirror… else try using zypper commands.

I know it might seem un-related
But try this
Disable you Update repo
and add a new one
Index of /update/11.0

I had this last week and it was something to do with the default Update repo NOT the kde4.1.2 repo’s

Okay, it’s worked. :slight_smile: I’ll add my repos again. Thanks

Happy that sorted it for you:)
