Description:

This update for libzypp, zypper fixes the following issues:

libzypp was updated to 17.26.0:

  • Work around download.o.o broken https redirects.
  • Allow trusted repos to add additional signing keys (bsc#1184326) Repositories signed with a trusted gpg key may import additional package signing keys. This is needed if different keys were used to sign the the packages shipped by the repository.
  • MediaCurl: Fix logging of redirects.
  • Use 15.3 resolver problem and solution texts on all distros.
  • $ZYPP_LOCK_TIMEOUT: Let negative values wait forever for the zypp lock (bsc#1184399) Helps boot time services like 'zypper purge-kernels' to wait for the zypp lock until other services using zypper have completed.
  • Fix purge-kernels is broken in Leap 15.3 (bsc#1185325) Leap 15.3 introduces a new kernel package called kernel-flavour-extra, which contain kmp's. Currently kmp's are detected by name ".-kmp(-.)?" but this does not work which those new packages. This patch fixes the problem by checking packages for kmod() and ksym() provides and only falls back to name checking if the package in question does not provide one of those.
  • Introduce zypp-runpurge, a tool to run purge-kernels on testcases.

zypper was updated to 1.14.45:

  • Fix service detection with cgroupv2 (bsc#1184997)
  • Add hints to 'trust GPG key' prompt.
  • Add report when receiving new package signing keys from a trusted repo (bsc#1184326)
  • Added translation using Weblate (Kabyle)
