Problem with mozilla-xulrunner181 on a openSUSE 11.0 (and gnome)


I'm having a little bit of an annoying problem with my openSUSE 11.0 (and gnome). Every time I reboot it I get warning about an important security update, which is this mozilla-xulrunner181 patch. But when I click to install it nothing happens. Going through the motions with zypper results in :

andri@virgil:~$ sudo zypper ve

Patches

Repository | Name | Version | Category | Status
----------------------+----------------------+---------+----------+-------
openSUSE-11.0-Updates | mozilla-xulrunner181 | 329 | security | Needed
andri@virgil:~$ sudo zypper lu -t package
Reading installed packages...
No updates found.
andri@virgil:~$ sudo zypper up
Reading installed packages...

The following NEW patch is going to be installed:
mozilla-xulrunner181


No additional space will be used or freed after the operation.
Continue? [YES/no]:
andri@virgil:~$ sudo zypper in mozilla-xulrunner181
Reading installed packages...
'mozilla-xulrunner181' is already installed.
Nothing to do.

Somehow it seems to be impossible for me to get rid of this. I have tried every permutation I can think of downgrading packages in the hope that somehow the situation will fix itself, but with no luck so far.

Thanks,
Andri


P.S.
andri@virgil:~$ rpm -qa | grep mozilla
