Description Felix Miata 2021-07-09 07:11:17 UTC

Original Summary:
zypper rejects solution response when solution count is high

To reproduce:
1-create a conflict with locks condition where zypper dup offers many solutions to choose from (e.g.: 22)
2a-make a single digit selection (e.g.: 2-keep obsolete suse-module-tools)
2b-make a double digit selection (e.g.: 22-break suse-module-tools)

Actual behavior:
1a-zypper responds ": Ambiguous answer '2'. (2,20,21,22)"
1b-zypper apparently loops, just redrawing the same list of options

Expected behavior:
1-selection accepted

Notes:
1-due to absence of kernel scrollback buffer (bug 1176235), the initial portion of zypper's conflict report and list of possible solutions is not accessible - #1 (with 20+ proposed removals) has scrolled off tty3 screen.
2-this has happened on my last two attempts to upgrade from 15.2 to 15.3 (two different hosts)
3-my workaround: rpm -e --nodeps suse-module-tools
4-selected locks list:
1  | *-lang              | package | (any)
11 | glibc-local?        | package | (any)
17 | kernel-az*          | package | (any)
18 | kernel-de*          | package | (any)
19 | kernel-kv*          | package | (any)
20 | kernel-pr*          | package | (any)
21 | kernel-r?           | package | (any)
22 | kernel-sy*          | package | (any)
23 | kernelshar*         | package | (any

Comment 1 Andreas Stieger 2021-07-09 09:48:02 UTC

heh, seems to trigger when the selection is not prefix free
