Description Marvin FourtyTwo 2017-12-07 09:23:25 UTC

yes, lsb is ancient (even V5), but some proprietary apps want it. Lsb5 package was provided with Leap 42.3 and it seems that it was dropped for some reason. Would it possible to provide it again?

Another reason is that tumbleweed provides lsb V4 which is even older and pulls in qt3 which in turn pulls in the base of kde4 and kde3 styles.

Why would you assume that reason does not exist anymore? If I recall correctly it is not possible to fulfill dependencies of lsb5 on Factory.

I hadn't found the factory package, but Leap package gave:

error: Failed dependencies:
        libpng15.so.15()(64bit) is needed by lsb5-desktop-5.0-4.2.x86_64
        perl(B::Lint) is needed by lsb5-languages-5.0-4.2.x86_64

sorry, I misread your comment. It sounds just strange to me that lsb4 is no problem while lsb5 is. Ok, maybe more (obsolete) packages includes.
