Hi,

I stumbled across a few issues in an attempt to recover from a failed tumbleweed upgrade (power loss due to prolonged upgrade time this weekend with my ThinkPad X1 Gen 1). A couple of shared libs (e.g. upower) sizes were zero..

Let's sort those issues out before creating bugzilla incidents.

After booting from an USB stick with 20190607, I was presented with a couple of disturbing "Login Service" failures. Almost related, the shell prompt is significantly delayed (~30 sec) after entering login id root. "systemctl status systemd-logind.service" says, it is respawning too fast.. Hopefully related, besides tty1, there were no additional consoles available. Hrmpf.

Next, I've tried to setup wifi networking, derived from the usual wired sequence:

$ dhcpcd $ ip link set wlp3s0 up $ iwconfig wlp3s0 essid "XXX"

only to find out, that iwconfig is not able to connect to a WPA/WPA2 network. Okay, it needs wpa_supplicant then, hrmpf.

$ wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp3s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant CTRL: Invalid group 'wheel' Failed...

$ sed -i 's/wheel/root/' /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Now, wpa_supplicant succeeds..

$ wpa_cli

scan

OK

add_network 0

0

set_network 0 ssid "ESSID"

OK

set_network 0 psk "passphrase"

OK

enable_network 0

OK .... Ctrl-D

$ dhcpcd wlp3s0 wlp3s0 up

Hooray. But I don't exactly like this procedure, to put it gently.

Which one deserves a bugzilla record?

Cheers, Pete
