Unable install SLED15-SP1 Software Updates

Hi, folks! Warmest greetings from Ireland! Since creating our new SLED15-SP1 evaluation account, Wed-18-Dec-2019, I regret report I have since been prevented from installing successfully even one single software update. Here’s what shows up as my attempted installation aborts:─

[I]Software Updates Available

[SIZE=2]Update error![/SIZE]

libavfilter6-3.4.2-4.12.4.x86_64 requires libswscale4 =
3.4.2-4.12.4, but this requirement cannot be provided.

libavdevice57-3.4.2-4.12.4.x86_64 requires libavutil55 =
3.4.2-4.12.4, but this requirement cannot be provided.

libavfilter6-3.4.2-4.12.4.x86_64 requires libavresample3 =
3.4.2-4.12.4, but this requirement cannot be provided.[/I]

Hmmm! This, of course, raises the obvious question: WHY cannot the above three (3) requisite, and clearly identified, packages be provided by SUSE? They would appear to be absolutely essential if, as planned, we are to be able continue using SLED15-SP1 with all new updates. Presumably, this is a package dependency issue?

Folks, your most kind advice in this matter will be very much appreciated. System techspecs are as shown below.

Hi and welcome to the Forum :slight_smile:
Those packages come from SUSE PackageHub, a likely cause is the SUSE updates have run but the package hub packages have not rebuilt and been published yet.

Use zypper if to see the repository it’s from eg;

Two different packages from the same Source package, but different builds of ffmpeg…

Try a zypper ref -f to force a complete rebuild of the cache.

Is ffmpeg installed? If so is in from SUSE Package Hub?

Hi, Malcolm! Thank you very much for your most kind and helpful response to my posting. I apologise for the delay in reverting. This reply would have reached you yesterday, but for the fact that I had a menacing system freeze just moments before I was due to post on this forum. I had no choice but to reboot and, thus, lose everything I had composed. This time, however, I have taken the precaution of composing on LibreOffice Writer and then pasting the text directly into the forum.

Anyway, and as requested by your good self, I append below the information sought for the following packages: libavfilter6, libswscale4, libavdevice57, libavutil55 and libavresample3:-

You have asked whether ffmpeg is installed. No, a YaST2 search reveals it is NOT installed presently, but version 3.4.2-4.12.4 is available via YaST. SUSE PackageHub’s version is much outdated, with only version 12 offered.

Malcolm, I await with keen interest your further kind advice, in hope a forced rebuild of the cache may yet prove to be unnecessary. Cheers!

Hi,

i have also trouble with that patch, it forced me to uninstall ffmpeg-3.4.2-4.12.4. To install that patch.
Now i cannot install ffmpeg. I guess it is because ffmpeg-3.4.2-4.27.1 is not available.

But here it is announced to be there:

https://www.suse.com/support/update/announcement/2019/suse-su-20193184-1/

SUSE Linux Enterprise Module for Packagehub Subpackages 15 (aarch64 ppc64le s390x x86_64):
→ ffmpeg-3.4.2-4.27.1

with kind regards.
