I'm reporting this, as requested in
 http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2016-10/msg00514.html

Install used the DVD installer (for RC1).  I did not add any online repos. 
There was an ethernet connection during the install.

The install went about as expected.  All packages seemed to be installed.  Then
the installer was presumably running post-install scripts, so there was a
period of no screen activity (the disk was busy).  At this stage, the progress
bar (upper of the two progress bars) listed "kaddressbook5", which was
presumably the last package that was installed.

After that, I saw messages about running "yudit" (if I recall correctly).  And
then the upper progress bar gave details of downloading "kaddressbook5".  This
was evidently a network download, because it gave speeds typical of network
downloads.  Shortly after that, there was a message about network
configuration.

My best guess is that the "kaddressbook5" was bogus, perhaps a left-over string
from install.  In previous installs (Tumbleweed or 42.1 or 13.2) I would have
expected a message about downloading release-notes to test the network.  I'm
guessing that was what was really happening, but the message was incorrectly
listing "kaddressbook5".

Apart from that, the install went well.

Note that I have done three installs of 42.2 RC1 (on 3 different computers). 
And this happened for all three installs.  I'm pretty sure that it also
happened for Beta3, though I was not looking as carefully at that time.

I'll attach Yast logs after completing this report.

The email list ask for a list of software that I installed.  I didn't write it
down.  So this is from memory and might be incomplete:

Desktop selection: KDE
Also selected Gnome (both patterns), XFCE (both patterns), base development
pattern, yakuake, epiphany, kernel-devel, dd_rescue, aria2c, fvwm2, dar, lynx,
links, mc, mutt, whois and probably a few others.


Reproducible: Always
