Correction. Silly me. I did do the force update but I hadn't rebooted.
When I try to reboot I get grub2 error:
error: invalid arch-independent ELF majic
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? Crap. I can't sin at this...

OK, I finally got it to force update and reboot. I didn't have a
qt4-common installed. urpmi qt4-common installed a x86_64 package.
Using the mirrors that came with install.
Perhaps something that would help with testing the forced update would
be a list of packages to install manually?

One thing that I just noticed is that while most of the qt4 packages
on my system are x86_64, qt4-common is i586, and the x86_64 version
doesn't exist. Is this an oversight?

To me it's more the amount of time it's been broken. How can we be
confident in releasing something that has been broken for this long?
But yes VLC package stack goes bye bye as well as dolphin and
konqueror and probably more I don't realize.

I'm starting to wonder about Plasma 5. Haven't been able to update
it for over a month now (or so it seems) due to a few broken
packages. That's a long time to be broken. And we're at version
5.4.x with all these problems and no screensaver or in my case no
sound either? In my case I also get a lot of random freeze ups with
Plasma 5 where on the same system no freeze ups on LXQt (VBox and
partition). Also for such a big change we need a good bit of time
to test and solve bugs but for the longest time we can't because it
won't even update. I'm aware that some people have been able to
'force' the update but that isn't good testing for a what we hope
to be a stable, quality release. I have all kinds of trouble
forcing the update. Something always breaks. I wish I could get
forcing the update figured out so I can see what version 5.4.1 is
really like but so far no success.
When trying to update our primary desktop always breaks something
for this long of a time frame it is, um, well, scary. Not confident
in this desktop at all.
I'm starting to think we should consider a release with KDE4 and
give more time for Plasma 5 to get to a working/stable state.
One thing that might help my impression would be exactly how does
one get the forced update to work? I know you lose Dolphin and
Konqueror and I guess get stuck with inferior PCMan file manager.
Any way I'm off to try one more time in vbox to force the damn update.
