- apt-rpm: while some people report bad experiences with it (corrupt RPM

smart since some time now) and it seems that it's being actively
maintained and developed again, and even supports RPM-MD (yum)
repositories in its latest versions (though that's not the one shipped
on the 10.1 FTP tree)
OK, but then it should be made very clear that this one (apt) is not the one
whose resolver engine was designed to work with the repositories provided for
SUSE Linux. Especially, it should be made very clear that it is not biarch
safe, which YaST/zypp is (or at least, should be).
There is a bug 176739 and I blame using non-YaST/zypp package managers for it.
You better should blame the non-matching package release numbers for
glibc-devel (i686 has a higher number).
Some examples of people experiencing this problem (two of them in German,
unfortunately):

This is not "some examples" - this is all you have.
Your mouth is bigger than your head.
