Description

Hello.

I'm using AMC 1.2.1 on openSUSE 12.3. Recently, I got a system update message related to texlive, but when I went to install it I was warned by the following message:

auto-multiple-choice-1.2.1-102.1.i586 requires texlive-bin-latex, but this requirement cannot be provided.

The system gave me three options:
  1. Uninstall AMC
  2. Don't install the patches.
  3. Break AMC ignoring some of it's dependencies.

Obviously I won't uninstall AMC nor break it, but I would like to have my system packages up-to-date.

The detailed information for the patches to be installed with the update is the following (both patches are related to package texlive-bin-bin: binary files of latex-bin):

*openSUSE-2013-628* - texlive: roll up bugfix update

TeXLive was updated to fix various bugs.
Following bugs were fixed: 
- Asymptote binaries may have the same version as the format files
of the asymptote package it self (bnc#813032) 
- Change Obsoletes from < 2012+subversion to <= 2011 (bnc#811162)
- Let mathdesign require tex(texnansi.enc) (bnc#808731)
- Let biber-bin require perl(Text::BibTeX) (bnc#811258)
- Do not require xfs as we do not use xfs at all, otherwise we
have to add some more lua code in the %post scriptlet.
- Let texlive-biber require perl(LWP::UserAgent) to be able to
read system based certificates
- backward compatibility Provides: texlive-bin-dvilj (SR#175836)
- As lcdf-typetools does not support kpathsea nor search below
texmf tree build the texlive-lcdftypetools(-bin) packages again and let them conflict with the lcdf-typetools package.
- Let texlive-pdfjam require texlive-pdfpages (bnc#814804)
- Let texlive-pdftools require texlive-pst-pdf (bnc#812286)
- Correct license boolean for biber packages
- Let texlive-tex4ht-bin conflict with ht due path /usr/bin/ht
- Let texlive-lcdftypetools(-bin) packages depend on lcdf-typetools
package or conflict.
- Let texlive-arev require tex(mdacmr.fd) (bnc#819867)
- Avoid line break in patch pgf_plain.dif (bnc#823273)
- Avoid doubling mktex.opt content with excessive patch which had
lead that the original content overrides the new one (bnc#801727)
