Retired
Reason for Retirement: This looks like a packaging issue as the pwlib version
format changed ( pwlib-1.10.4-1.pm.3@i586 and  pwlib-1.11.1-27@i586 )

Please reopen this issue in the new bugtracker if it is still an issue.

This is on my OpenSUSE10.2 system. Smart gets totally confused about what to do
with the opal and pwlib packages.

Doing "smart upgrade --explain" shows:
