Description Vojtech Dziewiecki 2012-06-06 14:12:19 UTC
I am unable to install gvim normally on factory.

zypper in gvim 
Actual results:

Problem: nothing provides perl = 5.14.2 needed by gvim-7.3.456-2.2.x86_64
 Solution 1: do not install gvim-7.3.456-2.2.x86_64
 Solution 2: break gvim-7.3.456-2.2.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

Expected results:
It should work with perl 5.16, which is present in Factory.

Also, when I choose Solution2:

Additional rpm output:
update-alternatives: error: cannot scan directory `/var/lib/rpm///var/lib/rpm/alternatives': No such file or directory
update-alternatives: error: cannot scan directory `/var/lib/rpm///var/lib/rpm/alternatives': No such file or directory
warning: %post(gvim-7.3.456-2.2.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 2

And then when I run gvim:
E25: GUI cannot be used: Not enabled at compile time.

OK never mind, it is fixed after I run zypper up this morning.
