I'm afraid there was a bug we didn't catch before the current Mer release
related to zypper.

The bug leaves zypper in an unusable state and typically seems to result in
something like:
  *** glibc detected *** zypper: double free or corruption

The workaround is pretty easy; install the latest libsolv0 package using rpm.

For armv7hl that is:

curl -O
http://releases.merproject.org/releases/latest/builds/armv7hl/packages/armv7hl/libsolv0-0.1.0-1.1.armv7hl.rpm
rpm -U libsolv0-0.1.0-1.1.armv7hl.rpm

We've already started on mer-next so we won't be doing a 0.20121205.2 release.

The relevant bug is https://bugs.merproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654
