[opensuse] Yast Softare Management crashes
Anyone else having this problem? When I go to use Yast Software Management it goes through the repo refresh and crashes w/ this error: YaST got signal 11 at YCP file /usr/share/YaST2/clients/inst_packages.ycp:36 /sbin/yast2: line 421: 25060 Segmentation fault $ybindir/y2base $module "$@" "$SELECTED_GUI" $ Any ideas? Everything else in YAst2 works, and the ncurses version works fine. -- Michael S.

Exact same thing happens to me, intermittently, beginning several days ago. I have been tweaking my install quite a bit lately. Seems to happen only when making a large number of package changes at one time, and not even always then. Only difference is that mine hangs, first with a busy cursor, then if I switch viewports, for example, when I return to that viewport, I find the window has the gray and white semi-random rectangles inside the window. I find two sets of process groups for yast, each with three processes. When I issue a kill on the "grandchild" process, then a window appears with this msg. Thought it might be because I had whacked up some dependency somewhere, when doing manual resolutions, and was trying to straighten that out with installs, removals and upgrades. Now that I see your post, I guess it must be something else. FWIW, I am running the GNOME:STABLE repos, to get Gnome 2.26, although I have no reason to suspect that any more than anything else. Until then, just the boxes inside the window. Dan Goodman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You guys haven't added any qt45 packages lately have you? That will blow yast up bigger than ... pick your favorite. If you have, then disable any qt45 repos you have enabled and downgrade all qt packages in yast by selecting "repository -> update repository" and looking for any qt packages shown in red and then right-click and choose (believe it or not) upgrade;-) -- David C.

It actually does, but it is out of display field. You can use Left-Right cursor keys to scroll the list. The list of packages should be in focus, using TAB. Though it is very slow when list is long.

Set repositories so that KDE4 one has same priority as Update. Software > Software Repositories TAB TAB Highlight Qt45. (up-down cursor keys) Alt E to disable Qt45 repo. Press TAB to go back to list.

Alt-F to open refresh dialog Alt-E to Refresh All Enabled Alt-O to quite Software Repositories Now, I would quit YaST, just to make sure that changes are applied. Yesterday I hit the bug in GUI (Qt) where change in repository priority, made by calling repository management from Software Management, did not change priority before I quit Software Management and started again. In ncurses there is no such option so it may work without YaST restart, but to be on a safe side better restart all. Go to the Software Management. Alt-P to go to the search field Enter 'qt' and press Enter. Scroll list and mark all qt4 related packages for update. -- Regards, Rajko http://news.opensuse.org/category/people-of-opensuse/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
