Software shows up as installed and not installed at same time in zypper.
Hello! I have a rather confusing problem on my hands, and after much research am still drawing a blank. I will use Alsa-utils for my example, but this happens with several other software packages. I am running OpenSuSE 11.2. This is what I am getting.
{~} GoD: sudo zypper install alsa-utils
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
'alsa-utils' is already installed.
Resolving package dependencies...
Nothing to do.
So then I attempt to remove it and get:
{~} GoD: sudo zypper remove alsa-utils
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
Resolving package dependencies...
The following packages are going to be REMOVED:
alsa alsa-utils
2 packages to remove.
After the operation, 3.1 MiB will be freed.
Continue? [y/n/?] (y): y

There are some running programs that use files deleted by recent upgrade. You may wish to restart some of them. Run 'zypper ps' to list these programs.
I am at a loss and any help would be appreciated!
Thank you.
