Hi all,

I cleaned my repos a bit and wanted to update my system with zypper dup. However, zypper dup wants to uninstall many many packages.

Here are my repos:

20-10-24 21:20]cbrunos in ~ ➤ zypper lr
Repository priorities in effect:                                                                                                                                                                              (See 'zypper lr -P' for details)
      90 (raised priority)  :  1 repository   
      99 (default priority) :  5 repositories

Here’s the terminal output when I want to run zypper dup:

Is it safe to update?

Your pastebin suggests…

You added the packman repository, but you didn’t run the command to set your system to pull packages from packman over the OSS whenever possible

zypper dup --from packman

At least for an application (wouldn’t know about your system), there is an upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit. Did an application change architecture?
