Q: if you have many packages to upgrade but few are dependent of a
library that is not available for example, how can you install upgrades
that are OK and leave the ones that are not?. I have been doing it one
by one but that is not good. What I am missing.

example:

I have many upgrades and I get the following error.

<<<<<<<<<<
file /usr/lib64/libmtp.so.6 from install of libmtp7-0.2.3-0.pm.1
conflicts with file from package libmtp-0.2.1-10
file /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/10-usb-music-players-libmtp.fdi from install of libmtp7-0.2.3-0.pm.1 conflicts with file from package libmtp-0.2.1-10


How can I skip this error and continue upgrading the rest of the
packages?

TIA

# smart remove libmtp

This dependency problem also exists with yast2
