Description Reinhard Mutz 2015-03-04 09:32:59 UTC

I am operating 2 32-bit systems and switched back from systemd 208-32.1-i586 to systemd 208-23.3-i586 because of lots  of errors and crashes.

I tried to install patch openSUSE-2015-172 and installation breaks.
The error message is
patch:openSUSE-2015-172-1.noarch conflicts with systemd-sysvinit.i586 < 208-32.1 provided by systemd-sysvinit-208-23.3.i586

Comment 1 Bernhard Wiedemann 2015-03-06 13:48:09 UTC

hmm. I thought, systemd-208-23.3 was the bad one
and systemd-208-32.1 had the fix for the crashes...


I think, there is some info missing.
e.g. how did you downgrade?
using zypper in -f systemd-208-23.3-i586 ?

did you do zypper addlock?

Some clues might be in the conflict resolution proposals 
below the quoted "conflicts" message.

the full zypper error message would be helpful.

It is likely a zypper lock issue.

zypper ll
