I would like to drop yast2-repair from 11.3 as this fails now for over half a year without anyone interested.
The main problem with this yast module is that it needs someone who really tests to repair broken setups a lot - and this means a lot of work and very little reputation, because a repair module is only used when something is broken and if it works it's taken for granted and if it fails, it sucks.
As the "fails for 149 days" message on [1] pretty clearly says: there is no one doing this. So I have two options: finding someone who loves repairing or drop it _NOW_. So I'm trying the first option with right this mail, but I need to drop it next week because I need to adapt the boot menu too.

SLE/Novell really doesn't need this?
Nope.
Personally I'd be happy if there was just a "repair grub" tool.
There's the repair module of the installation media and that's different to yast2-repair AFAIK, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
