I have traced it down to zypp::RepoManager::checkIfToRefreshMetadata() or zypp::RepoManager::refreshMetadata() calls (depending on repository status, after complete metadata removal it fails in the check call). But interestingly zypper works without glibc-locale correctly, after refreshing repositories by zypper Yast starts correctly. Michael, any idea about that glibc-locale problem? I have checked zypper and pkg-bindings use the same calls, maybe some different locale related setup? (Even google did not find anything useful about the locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid" exception.) Of course, I could add a glibc-locale dependency, but it does not seem to be the correct solution, on my system only "man" and "rpm-build" packages require it. -- 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.
