I picked the command zypper -v in libswresample3_9-4.4.4-150500.14.pm.1 based entirely on the omissions list zypper provided.Just do the packman switch, periodically.That's opposite of what I /do/ want. There was a recent weeks mailing list thread with an @suse.com author address who explained that the need for packages from Packman have been reduced, so I was hoping to keep the count in 15.5 to a minimum.
To keep them to a minimum you still need to do the packman switch, periodically⁽¹⁾. It is not you who must keep them packages to a minimum, but them, the packagers. You just install them from packman. When they decide to, say, optimize a package, it goes out from packman and appears in oss.
That's it. As user you are not affected, you keep doing the same.
I find the frequency of updates coming from Packman highly annoying, so keep Packman disabled except when doing an up so as to limit most zypper activity to hitting only packages from standard repos.
You need to update as frequently as the rest of the distribution. Say once a month, once a week, whenever you are ready for it. But everything in one go, not a portion of it. ALL.
Assuming you are on Leap. If you are on TW, do it every day. And reboot every day.
Otherwise, you get problems as the one you have now with formats.
(1) Every few months, say. You, today. Don't argue :-p
