Congrats! :) Sorry I meant to get back to that but didn't make it. It
seems most likely that your networking was non-functional for whatever
reason.

More software, what else?

ISOs get mastered, then sent to the works, then pressed, then shipped,
and that was 1-2 months ago. Bugs don't sleep :)

Download libzypp-1.1.0-1.11 from a mirror and install it manually with
rpm -Uvh libzy...
Make sure to get exactly this version, and not the testing version from
AJ's personal directory which I posted earlier.
Unless you know which services to restart, reboot.
Cross your fingers.

If there are stil errors installing your updates port the error msg.
