When does it crash? What version are you using? Use Bugzilla (assign to me) or meet us on irc://irc.opensuse.org/yast . I've checked the Packages: http://pastebin.ca/1621656

OK, most packages have 2.17.x version, which corresponds to openSUSE 11.1, but some of them have 2.18.x (oS 11.2), in particular yast2-ycp-ui-bindings-2.18.5-1.1 The crash happens in Wizard.ycp which deals with UI code, so it is most likely a binary incompatiblity of that package. I assume that you are mixing yast packages from different repositories. (trying out libyui, perhaps?) In general that is a bad idea because our libraries are not behaving well with respect to library versioning and the shared library policy, sorry. Please run "zypper se -s yast2" to see where your packages are coming from, and fix it using zypper. Something like this could do it: zypper in yast2-ycp-ui-bindings\<2.18 yast2-libyui\<2.18 -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org

rpm -V should report such wrong dependencies. If it doesn't, its a packaging fault (not requiring the correct version).

The dependencies are usually defined like this: Requires: yast2 >= 2.16.46 We would have to add explicit Requires: yast2 < 2.18.0 to ensure that 2.18.x package will not be installed. AFAIK we would have to add this extra dependency for all Requires for all Yast packages and we would have to change this dependency for each distribution release. Maybe this extra dependencies could be added automatically by '/usr/bin/y2tool create-spec' call which generates the final .spec file from .spec.in.
