[Bug 301031] New: System restoration doesn't function properly
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=301031 Summary: System restoration doesn't function properly Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 1 Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: ktf@icer.nl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Beta-Customer Ok, I don't know if this is a bug, but it is clearly annoying. I backed-up my openSUSE 10.2 system to repartition everything (it was a bit scattered) and installed it back. After using the Restoration tool I found out that it had taken about half an our, and there was nothing changed. (There were no files recovered and there were no program's installed) With the intention that it was a obvious problem and that it would be fixed in the next major version, I installed openSUSE 10.3 Beta 1, and tried it again. Again, it took about half an our, and there was nothing changed, no new programms, no updated programs and no restored files. What's the problem? P.S.: Sorry for my bad English, I'm not native ;) -- 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.

Could you, please, try to run the restore again and attach YaST logs directly after it finishes?

First I was unable to reproduce your problem, one removed package got installed, two removed files (not belonging to any package) got restored as well but then I hit a similar error with empty dialog. My simple patch should fix it.

Please, if you feel it is needed, report a bug, propose some nice solution :))) and attach YaST logs :) Bye L. -- 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.
