Description Ruediger Oertel 2006-03-02 23:58:16 UTC
in the "Package Installation" screen you can see:

Downloading java-1_4_2-sun-plugin (xxxx)
java-1_4_2-sun (xxx)
Downloading kdebase3-ksysguardd (xxxx)
kdebase3 (xxxx)

looks like all names are truncated at the _last_ "-" char ...

and if there is no "-" in the name it looks like:
Downloading kdelibs3 (xxxx)
kdelibs3.rpm (xxxx)
(without "-", ".rpm" is appended ...)

Still happening.
Comment 2 Stefan Hundhammer 2006-03-20 16:30:51 UTC
Looks like the API silently got changed while migrating from the old package manager to libzypp: The callbacks while installing packages used to pass package names with release no. etc., now it doesn't any more. That release no. was indeed cut off.

Removing that StripReleaseNo() call. 

I wonder when (not if) it will break the other way around when the API silently changes back...
