I am using Slitaz rolling full install on a 32 bit P3 laptop. When I update the system, libcomerr3 comes up to update. I do the update and get the confirmation that this has been installed but when I check for updtates libcomerr3 is back on the list of updates. It wont go away. Can someone advise please.
Thanks
Updates libcomerr3 says installed but keeps appearing on update list to install

If there is a hyphen or a number in the package name prior to "-<version>" tazpkg sometimes updates the wrong package or quits the update.
The workaround is to manually update the package with it's exact name-version.
Get the exact name-version number from the update list or the info command.
If there is an update or new build with the info command it will say (new build available) or (new version " " available)tazpkg info libcomerr3 | grep Version
TazPkg information

Version : 1.17

tazpkg -gi libcomerr3-1.17 --forced

This can also happen if an installed package in your system provides libcomerr3.
If mojo's solution didn't solve the problem, from a root terminal type
tazpkg up
Confirm you want to update libcomerr3 and note the name of the package that is really updated.
Remove it then remove libcomerr3 and then reinstall the first package you removed.Posted 5 years ago # -
I tried the solutions given above. Neither worked for me. Due to the fact it takes no more than a few minutes I re installed as other than LibreOffice, I have little else on the system.
I haven't done any updates as I'm getting issues with updates and the Pentium 3 not supporting (see my separate post re Firefox and Thunderbird broken)Posted 5 years ago # -
Hello,
FYI for me, the solution of mojo works. I often have this problem with the package epdfview.
