I suspect you're hitting this issue (the second one of those, to be precise):

- shell escape added for the password for encrypted profiles
- speed up software cloning with many repositories
- clean up
- 2.18.0

I thought the fix went out as online update for openSUSE 11.1, but I can't 
seem to find it among released patches :( So the solution now seems to be 
using autoyast2 package from openSUSE Factory ...
