Most likely this is just a bug in the update system. The opensuse-updater(which binary depends on window manager) has two modes of operation. One(1) is the utilization of the rpm package manager library. Two(2) is the utilization of the zmd daemon. You can check your system for a running zmd daemon to determine which mode of operation is being utilized. This should help to narrow down the root cause. Whether it is within the binary, daemon, or library is beyond me. I am sure there are far more seasoned opensuse minds within this list that may provide guidance. Possibly it could even be a misconfigration within the update repository. Please cc me as you navigate the issue. I would like to know for sure myself. ;) Cheers.
