This is getting weird. I tried 2 different computers, and I can not get the
'broken pipe' message to trigger if I use the debugging script. When I switch
back to normal 'cat,' then I can get the message again.
The message does not happen every time, and I have not found a pattern or
reason for when I will get it. It seems to happen more often than not -- but
not with the cat.sh script even after many tries.
Note also that it is not limited to Online Update or Software Management. I
can get it also with other yast2 functions, such as various processes in
Network Services.
The following lines appeared in the .xsession-errors on the last time I got the
message. (The popup window says it is from xmessage.) In fact, similar lines
appear each time there is a broken pipe, sometimes with the same or with
different Resource ids. This seems to be the most debug tracing information I
can get. --
X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
