Description Per Jessen 2018-08-09 06:57:18 UTC
Created attachment 779279 [details]
output from 'zypper in xtables-addons-kmp-default

office38:  up-to-date system, running kernel -12.7.
I tried installing 'xtables-addons-kmp-default'. This drags in kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.11.4.x86_64.rpm. 

The initrd is built, but then:

(2/2) Installing:
xtables-addons-kmp-default-2.14_k4.12.14_lp150.11-lp150.2.25.x86_64 ...
[done]
Additional rpm output:
depmod: WARNING: //lib/modules/4.12.14-lp150.11-default/extra/xt_psd.ko
needs unknown symbol (null)              

Plenty more of those.  At the end, "cat: write error: Broken pipe", and
the remaining initrds are not rebuilt.  See attached.

I can confirm that on my system running kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.12.7.1 if I try to install xtables-addons-kmp-default then YaST tries to downgrade my kernel to kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.11.4
