zypper log

I currently have installed timezone-2009p-1.1.1.i586 and there is a timezone update in the update repo: timezone-2009u-1768.noarch

I try to lock the package, so that the update applet ignores it: 
> sudo zypper al timezone

Doing: 
> sudo zypper up -t patch
Problem: patch:timezone-2009u-1768.noarch conflicts with timezone.i586 < 2009u-0.1.1 provided by timezone-2009p-1.1.1.i586
 Solution 1: do not keep timezone-2009p-1.1.1.i586 installed
 Solution 2: do not install patch:timezone-2009u-1768.noarch

Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c] (c):

gives this conflict, which the updater applet cannot handle, it just displays the first line of the error message. I would expect that the updater ignores locked packages.
