https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=258742 ------- Comment #9 from sh@novell.com 2007-04-03 08:04 MST ------- Given the very limited amount of information in the bug description, trying to puzzle together what happened from the y2logs looks like this: - Initial installation is started, new installation, KDE desktop, time zone is set, most values left as defaults (-> macro_inst_initial.ycp) - 848 Packages are installed from ftp://dist/%2finstall/SLP/openSUSE-10.3-Alpha2plus-DVD/x86_64/DVD1 without problem, in particular withour segfault from PackageCallbacks.ycp (which is heavily used during package installation) - The second part of the installation ("continue mode") is started (PID 3959): 2007-03-28 22:37:35 <1> linux(3959) [liby2] genericfrontend.cc(main):256 Launched YaST2 component 'y2base' 'installation' '("continue")' 'qt' No more packages are left to be installed. - Root password, network etc. is configured. - Initial online update during installation is invoked. These packages/patches are marked for installation from http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/linux/suse.com/suse/update/10.3 : update-test-affects-package-manager-99-99.noarch update-test-interactive-99.99-99.99.noarch update-test-reboot-needed-99.99-99.99.noarch update-test-trival-99.99-99.99.noarch update-test-security-99.99-99.99.noarch One patch from these is installed (without problem - no segfault): update-test-affects-package-manager-99-99.noarch - Process 3959 terminates regularly because that patch has the "package management restart required after this patch" flag set. - The second part of the installation is started again (PID 6402): 2007-03-29 14:47:39 <1> e37(6402) [liby2] genericfrontend.cc(main):256 Launched YaST2 component 'y2base' 'installation' '("continue")' 'qt' - The leftover patches are installed (whithout problem - no segfault): update-test-interactive-99.99-99.99.noarch update-test-reboot-needed-99.99-99.99.noarch update-test-trival-99.99-99.99.noarch update-test-security-99.99-99.99.noarch - Process 6402 terminates regularly. - Since one of the patches (presumably update-test-reboot-needed) has the "need to reboot" flag set, the machine reboots or is manually rebooted (we can tell from the PIDs that again have lower numbers: 6402 -> 3911) - After reboot, the second part of the installation is started again, now for the third time: 2007-03-29 12:16:45 <1> linux-18uu(3911) [liby2] genericfrontend.cc(main):256 Launched YaST2 component 'y2base' 'installation' '("continue")' 'qt' - The Qt UI starts up regularly: 2007-03-29 12:16:47 <1> linux-18uu(3911) [qt-ui] YQUI_core.cc(processCommandLineArgs):240 Qt argument: qt ... 2007-03-29 12:16:48 <1> linux-18uu(3911) [qt-ui] YQUI_x11.cc(headingFont):190 Loaded 12 pixel bold font: Sans Serif,-1,12,5,75,0,0,0,0,0 - The last life signs of that process are: 2007-03-29 12:17:07 <1> e37(3911) [YCP] PackageCallbacks.ycp:1752 Scanning RPM DB... - Segfault: 2007-03-29 12:17:07 <3> e37(3911 [liby2]genericfrontend.cc(signal_handler):59 got signal 11 at YCP file PackageCallbacks.ycp:1760 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
