    Problem: 1: the installed libavutil59-7.0.2-150500.3.pm.2.x86_64
    requires 'libmfx.so.1()(64bit)', but this requirement cannot be provided
    not installable providers: libmfx1-22.6.1-150500.1.16.x86_64[repo-oss]

    Solution 1: Following actions will be done:
    deinstallation of libavutil59-7.0.2-150500.3.pm.2.x86_64
    deinstallation of libavcodec61-7.0.2-150500.3.pm.2.x86_64

    deinstallation of libavformat61-7.0.2-150500.3.pm.2.x86_64
    Solution 2: do not install patch:openSUSE-SLE-15.5-2024-3339-1.noarch
    Solution 3: break libavutil59-7.0.2-150500.3.pm.2.x86_64 by ignoring
    some of its dependencies

    Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/3/c/d/?] (c):

    [I always specify "2"]
    This affects Leap 15.5

    I have been away recently, but these messages may have been coming since
    last Monday (16th Sep) and I definitely saw them three days later when I
    was next at home.
    Has anyone also seen this and found a better solution than simply
    entering "2"?

    I might choose 1, and then repeat the packman switch.

    This sort of error happens every couple of months with Leap. I
    generally skip the patch for a few weeks and it usually goes
    away. Very rarely, after a month or two, do I have to google to
    find out what it's about.

    Can I?
    I tried "Online Update" and then "1" but chickened out at that point
    because it did not really want to tell me what it was about to do in sufficient detail.
    What is strange is that I have two 15.5 Leap machines (AMD Ryzen with
    embedded graphics, and an ancient Intel Core Duo) and the Intel does not
    have this problem.

    Thanks, after a lot of thought I decided to check if all those libraries
    were actually used for anything.
    I followed your advice and chose door 1 *after* having executed the
    packman switch. Repeating the packman switch after door 1 resulted in "nothing to do".
    One day (and a boot) later I can still play locally-stored videos and
    online videos without any difficulties, if I run across any problems
    I'll revisit those libraries but at the moment I have no idea why or how
    they landed on my system in the first place.
    This PC dates back to 2018 although I replaced processor and memory in November 2022, it started with whatever Leap level was current in summer
    2018 and has been living on distribution updates - rather than fresh
    installs - ever since.
