Is that the complete, original error message? If not, could you please copy&paste the error message here? In any case, you might want to try rpm-md channels instead of yast2 channels... Both should work, but if one of them doesn't, switching to the other type is an easy "fix". --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

That is about the extent of the error message. What do you fix? Jim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I don't understand what that means. I grepped /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/smart for the string "Yast descriptions are not installed" and did not find a single match. In other words, what you posted is definitely not the original text of the error message, and helping here will be very difficult.
What do you fix?
Nothing right now. But wait, I just found a similar one: "YaST2 package descriptions not loaded." That one basically means: rm -f /var/lib/smart/channels/* rm -f /var/lib/smart/cache And everything should be fine again. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
