You're running 11.3 (Factory) and not 11.2, right?

Comment 2 gérald Maricau 2010-02-10 11:22:28 UTC

Yes, i think so but i'm not sure why i'm having the 11.3 now.
Is this the consequence of entering this command :
zypper dup
zypper dist-upgrade

Comment 3 Leonardo Chiquitto 2010-02-10 11:30:21 UTC

It depends on the repositories you have configured in your machine. You can check this on YaST -> Software Repositories.

Adjusting bug product.

Comment 4 Leonardo Chiquitto 2010-02-10 11:32:00 UTC

Thanks for taking the time to report this problem. There's an ongoing effort to fix it in bug #577000, so I'm marking this one as a duplicate.
