Old bug.


Uninstall perl-IO-Compress (and its dependencies, note down the dependencies
you uninstall)

Do the update

Reinstall perl-IO-Compress and anything you unininstalled.

When you have reached the end of the road, then you can decide, whether
to go to the left or to the right, to fire or to water. If you make
those decisions before you have even set foot upon the road, it will
take you no where... except to a bad end.
