   An update that has 8 recommended fixes and contains one
   feature can now be installed.

Description:

   This update for libsolv, libzypp, zypper fixes the following issues:

   libzypp was updated to version 17.25.1:

   - Fix bsc#1176902: When kernel-rt has been installed, the purge-kernels
     service fails during boot.
   - Use package name provides as group key in purge-kernel (bsc#1176740
     bsc#1176192) kernel-default-base has new packaging, where the kernel
     uname -r does not reflect the full package version anymore. This patch
     adds additional logic to use the most generic/shortest edition each
     package provides with %{packagename}=<version> to group the kernel
     packages instead of the rpm versions. This also changes how the
     keep-spec for specific versions is applied, instead of matching the
     package versions, each of the package name provides will be matched.
   - RepoInfo: Return the type of the local metadata cache as fallback
     (bsc#1176435)
   - VendorAttr: Fix broken "suse,opensuse" equivalence handling. Enhance API
     and testcases. (bsc#1174918)
   - Update docs regarding 'opensuse' namepace matching.
   - New solver testcase format.
   - Link against libzsd to close libsolvs open references (as we link
     statically)

   zypper was updated to version 1.14.40.

   - info: Assume descriptions starting with '<p>' are richtext (bsc#935885)
   - Use new testcase API in libzypp.
   - BuildRequires:  libzypp-devel >= 17.25.0.
   - help: prevent 'whatis' from writing to stderr (bsc#1176712)
   - wp: point out that command is aliased to a search command and searches
     case-insensitive (jsc#SLE-16271)

   libsolv was updated to version 0.7.16:

   - do not ask the namespace callback for splitprovides when writing a
     testcase
   - fix add_complex_recommends() selecting conflicted packages in rare cases
     leading to crashes
   - improve choicerule generation so that package updates are prefered in
     more cases
   - make testcase_mangle_repo_names deal correctly with freed repos
     [bsc#1177238]
   - fix deduceq2addedmap clearing bits outside of the map
   - conda: feature depriorization first
   - conda: fix startswith implementation
   - move find_update_seeds() call in cleandeps calculation
   - set SOLVABLE_BUILDHOST in rpm and rpmmd parsers
   - new testcase_mangle_repo_names() function
   - new solv_fmemopen() function
