Tumbleweed Dist Upgrade New Conflicting Problems

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

Hello,

Up until now everything went smoothly with OpenSuse Tumbleweed. But recently i got some problems while trying to upgrade as usual… Python packages started to conflict. It’s a bit mess for me as i use this machine for development and i don’t want to make any package non working or absent from the system, so now i am just waiting to see if this will be solved in the near future. Also i want to ask what would you suggest?

 Solution 3: break python3-xarray-0.11.2-1.1.noarch by ignoring some of its dependencies

**Choose from above solutions by number or skip, retry or cancel [1/2/3/s/r/c] (c): **

Trying one of the solutions bring more other similar problems, eventually touching not only the python dev env, but also libre-office plugings and so on…

Thanks

Hi
With the recent Tumbleweed update to python 3.7, this is the expected fallout waiting for things to rebuild (perhaps fail and need fixing as well).

It could also be an out of date mirror not fully synced, you could try forcing a refresh and try again, or look at using a specific mirror in your locale (openSUSE Download Mirrors - Overview);

I just removed some packages which became absent from repos… i guess with tumbleweed and python best is to have additional packages installed with pip rather from repos…

#4

Hi
Well you can search on them and check the status in the development project, sure pip install is possible, then it’s additional packages you will need to maintain/update etc…

What ones did you remove?

#5

one major package was the skikit-learn … didn’t expect to have this issue though…

#6

Hi
It fails to build…
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE%3AFactory/python-scikit-learn

Looks like they turned off tests to fix the failure 7 days ago…
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python:numeric/python-scikit-learn

So it was an issue even before then… now it’s waiting for the rest of the python 3.7 rebuild fallout to finish…

#7

is there a way to stay on “more stable” branches of tumbleweed? so how they even could push this snapshot?

#8

Hi
Well if something changes with the supporting packages, there will always be fallout until it’s fixed/changed in the development repositories and gets back to factory, once there, through openQA and into the snapshot.

Packages like that are considered ‘leaf’ ones so don’t stop a snapshot release, if it’s important for folks AFAIK, they can contribute tests to be added in openQA so it won’t be affected in the future.

For me, it’s rock solid, but I have a look at the changes and then decide to update or not… https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/

There is tumbleweed-cli that you can rollback to the previous snapshot.

#9

Yes, this is also a good source http://review.tumbleweed.boombatower.com/
I guess there is a way to upgrade to a particular snapshot, will choose snapshots with score more than 90 in the future…
