Both are fine, but I will reply in english, that way everyone can

That is the typical error message which happens during an upgrade and a
symbolic link is replaced with a directory (or the opposite, I don't
remember exactly). cpio, which is used as the internal archive format in
RPMs, is not capable of handling that properly.

That being said, I'm currently having our wxWidgets package under
scrutiny, as it also causes other problems.
Basically, it is not completely compatible with the wxGTK packages that
ship with openSUSE, which is most likely also the reason for the problem
you ran into.

I'm going to try to align the package with the openSUSE one, which will
hopefully solve that issue (and others).

Thanks for reporting!

cheers
