[Bug 301646] New: software manager: too hungry for memory (?) when installing packages
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=301646 Summary: software manager: too hungry for memory (?) when installing packages Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins@wp.pl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- You can treat this report as continuation of the: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=271034 The report mentioned above focused on cryptic errors while installing rpms. As Ladislav explained, the error itself is caused by insufficient memory to run the rpm ( https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=271034#c6 ). But I am facing this (*) error again and again and I am a bit frustrated that I cannot install anything. So I waited for the error, I remembered the packaged name, I ran _another_ Konsole (so it is memory for it) with root account and I simply executed: rpm -i package_name and it was installed without any problem. When I am writing this report I've just installed several packages this way and I ran yet another Konsole (so there is still memory for it). Conclusion: if the original problem with error is not enough memory then what yast is doing with it? Demands have to be obviously huge since I ran in the same time another programs (I mean extra, additionally) and I installed all the software yast claimed to be impossible to install. (*) I won't bet on it since the error says "RPM failed: ----?". -- 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.
