[opensuse] Corrupt Repository Database
Hi Folks, It seems I've managed to corrupt my repository database. I get various errors at various times when trying to run update, repo remove/add etc. from yast2. Here's and example of the content of one of the error popups: Exception Occured: SQL logic error or missing database YaST got signal 11 at YCP file /usr/share/YaST2/clients/inst_productsources.ycp:1149 /sbin/yast2: line 386: 17977 Segmentation fault $ybindir/y2base $module "$@" "$SELECTED_GUI" $Y2_GEOMETRY $Y2QT_ARGS Net result is I can't get any updates or access "Software Management". Is there any way of flushing everything out without having to do a fresh install? I vaguely remember there's a way to do this, but I couldn't find it in the wiki. Thanks!

I had the same problems earlier. I am just hoping this is growing pains as the new hardware propagates openSuSE back out to all the mirrors. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.

Thanks Benji, that did the trick. For what it's worth, my problem preceded the recent update.opensuse.org hardware failure. I don't think they were related in any way.
