Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario opensuse-15.0-DVD-aarch64-kde@aarch64 fails in
amarok
with a confusing show of screenshots.
You see in https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/693593#step/amarok/11 that the prompt shows up. After that the password is actually typed. Then in https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/693593#step/amarok/12 it looks like the same window is still there but it is not the same window. It is popping up again. The real error message can be seen in the background xterm window, amarok could simply not be installed.
The actual problem "requires taglib >= 1.7 but this requirement can not be provided"

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: The error that the package is not installable is made obvious
  • AC2: Also in this case we would fall back to zypper

Suggestions

  • See ACs
  • Also think about removing the for loop because it seems to not help as expected and rather hides real errors

Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: latest
