[Bug 1006200] New: Weird (misleading?) package download message during install
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1006200 Bug ID: 1006200 Summary: Weird (misleading?) package download message during install Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation Assignee: yast2-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: nwr10cst-oslnx@yahoo.com QA Contact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0 Build Identifier: 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 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I have also noticed, with several recent installs, that this problem does not show up in a KVM install. It only occurs in a bare-metal install.
It turns out that I was mistaken. It occurred to me that all of my KVM installs have been from an iso (virtual DVD), while all of my bare metal installs have used a USB flash drive, with the DVD installer written to that USB drive. So I managed to do a KVM install from a USB. And, with that install, the problem did show up. I paused the VM at that point and took a screen shot. I have uploaded the screenshot and will shortly upload the Yast logs for that install. In the screenshot, the main information panel shows "saving the software manager configuration". Below that is a line where it shows as "Downloading patterns-kde-kde". When I do the same kind of KVM install from an iso, that lower line just says "Downloading" and does not say what is being downloaded (probably repo metadata). Installing from a USB, it instead says it is downloading whatever was the last package previously installed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
