Hello forum,

Is there anything known about messed up SUSEConnect packages in SLES12 since SUSEConnect-0.2.14.42-9.3.1.x86_64?

:~ # SUSEConnect If 'SUSEConnect' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this: cnf SUSEConnect :~ # rpm -qa | grep -i connect SUSEConnect-0.2.14.42-9.3.1.x86_64 ruby2.1-rubygem-suse-connect-0.2.14.42-9.3.1.x86_64 :~ # ls -l /usr/sbin/SUSEConnect lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Nov 6 19:58 /usr/sbin/SUSEConnect -> ../bin/SUSEConnect :~ # ls -l /usr/bin/SUSEConnect lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 May 11 2015 /usr/bin/SUSEConnect -> /etc/alternatives/SUSEConnect :~ # ls -l /etc/alternatives/SUSEConnect lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 May 11 2015 /etc/alternatives/SUSEConnect -> /usr/bin/SUSEConnect.ruby2.1-0.2.14 :~ # ls -l /usr/bin/SUSEConnect.ruby2.1-0.2.14 ls: cannot access /usr/bin/SUSEConnect.ruby2.1-0.2.14: No such file or directory :~ # rpm -V SUSEConnect-0.2.14.42-9.3.1.x86_64 ruby2.1-rubygem-suse-connect-0.2.14.42-9.3.1.x86_64 :~ # ls -l /usr/bin/SUSEConnect.ruby2.1-0.2.14 ls: cannot access /usr/bin/SUSEConnect.ruby2.1-0.2.14: No such file or directory

Thanks.

Hi jmroth,

Is there anything known about messed up SUSEConnect packages in SLES12 since SUSEConnect-0.2.14.42-9.3.1.x86_64?

Seems to be a problem with update-alternatives - from what I can see, the definitions look fine, but aren’t applied properly. Are you in a position to open a service request?

Regards,
Jens

I tried. But sometimes they take a while before ultimate comprehension. Instead they make you run diagnostic commands even if you tell them how to reproduce :slight_smile:

Hi jmroth,

do be to hard on 1st level :wink: - they’re the ones pushed by both the users and developers. The latter, by experience, insist on a supportconfig file to have all the environmental details at hand in a standardized way.
