Comment 4 Steffen Winterfeldt 2009-11-17 09:56:43 UTC

Factory builds are likely a bit inconsistent at the moment. Problem should
go away automatically once it's in a consistent state again.

Comment 5 James Rome 2009-11-24 20:24:06 UTC

I got this same bug in 11.2 after using Smart to update packages. I have yast2-perl-bindings-2.18.0-3.2.x86_64 installed.

perl 5.10.0.72.5 is installed. When I use
 smart to upgrade to 5.10.1-2.7, I get
 file /usr/bin/perl from install of perl-base-5.10.1-2.7.i586 conflicts with
 file from package perl-base-5.10.0-72.5.x86_64
 file /usr/bin/suidperl from install of perl-base-5.10.1-2.7.i586 conflicts
 with file from package perl-base-5.10.0-72.5.x86_64
 file /usr/share/man/man1/perl.1.gz from install of perl-base-5.10.1-2.7.i586
 conflicts with file from package perl-base-5.10.0-72.5.x86_64
 
 If I uninstall the old one. lots of dependent files also get uninstalled,
 and I don't know how to get them all back. So how do I force an update?
 
 Thanks,
 Jim

It is 11-24, some seven days since comment #4.  When would one expect Factory builds to attain a somewhat "consistent state again"?

Present has perl 5.10.1 available, which corrects the problems with yast but dis-allows usage of perl-spamassassin, spamassassin and apache2-mod_perl which all still require perl-5.10.0

Comment 7 Steffen Winterfeldt 2009-11-25 12:57:02 UTC

James, this is another problem. Please don't hijack other bugs. :-)

Patrick, I don't know. Probably the mentioned packages simply don't build
at the moment. If you are interested you can look at the package build logs
in the build service and maybe even submit a fix.

Anyway, this is not a yast bug.
