Zypper problem:says to update packages that are up-to-date

English Applications
1

My updater applet in the tray tells me two updates are available. I go
to update and nothing happens, it just refreshes and says there are two
updates.

I have run into this before with 10.2 and 10.3 so I deleted the local
cache and forced a refresh. Still had the same thing.

I ran “zypper up” from CLI and got this:

Code:

2 Problems:
Problem: patch:kdenetwork3-InstantMessenger-235.noarch conflicts with kdenetwork3-InstantMessenger.x86_64 < 3.5.9-39.2 provided by kde4-kopete-4.1.3-43.5.x86_64
Problem: patch:fileshareset-124.noarch conflicts with kdebase3-session.x86_64 < 3.5.9-65.2provided by kdebase4-session-4.1.3-23.2.x86_64

Problem: patch:kdenetwork3-InstantMessenger-235.noarch conflicts with kdenetwork3-InstantMessenger.x86_64 < 3.5.9-39.2 provided by kde4-kopete-4.1.3-43.5.x86_64
Solution 1: deinstallation of kde4-kopete-4.1.3-43.4.x86_64
Solution 2: do not install patch:kdenetwork3-InstantMessenger-235.noarch

Problem: patch:fileshareset-124.noarch conflicts with kdebase3-session.x86_64 < 3.5.9-65.2 provided by kdebase4-session-4.1.3-23.2.x86_64

It then wants me to uninstall KDE4.1.3 and then install the updates.
How do I fix this? has anyone else seen this?

running opensuse 11 with KDE 4.1.3 “Release 63.3”

I think this is a recent known problem. For now use the yast software
manager to update.

Thanks, I must have just missed that when searching. Exactly what I’m
having problems with.

The suse updater reports those updates/patches. Just ignore them.
Personally I don’t use the updater anyway. I switch it off.

If you use software management you can apply updates in there as
deano said. And it is not affected by the bug.
A fix may be on the way.
