Error retrieving package libical1-1.0.1-16.3.1.aarch64

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES for Raspberry Pi

When installing latest updates for SLES12 SP2 for Raspberry Pi I’m
repeatedly unable to download libical1-1.0.1-16.3.1.aarch64.rpm:

Retrying eventually produces the same error.

My guess is the package is corrupt on SUSE’s update server.

I note that the package is available via Patch Finder so I may just grab
and install it manually.

Thanks.

Well that worked - I grabbed it, verified the MD5 checksum, copied it to
/var/cache/zypp/packages/SUSE_Linux_Enterprise_Server_for_the_Raspberry_Pi_12_SP2_aarch64\:SLES12-SP2-RPI-Updates/aarch64/
then re-ran the zypper up command which picked it up from the cache.

Pi is now rebooting after updating kernel! :slight_smile:

HTH.
