I found the error in my installation.
Strangely I had the Packman Factory repository configured. After changing this
repository to the 12.1 one, and removing all the installed Packman Factory
packages and reinstalling the 12.1 ones everything is working fine again.

I am pretty sure I did not add that Packman repo pointing to Factory. I suppose
the downloaded repo list was pointing the Packman to Factory as I did the
update from 11.4 to 12.1.

To remove all wrong installed Factory pacakges I did as root:

rpm -e --nodeps `rpm -qai | egrep "^Name [ ]*:|^Distribution:" | grep -B 1
Factory | grep "^Name" | awk '{print $3}'`

and to install the needed packages again:

zypper ve
zypper inr

So, this bug is no bug for me, just a configuration error on my system.

cheers, Richard
