[opensuse] I wish I would get YAST (back) for Christmas
See my original post below - YAST & YOU all GUIs, incl. ncurses are gone - in
the meantime I see no other way than to reinstall, if Santa Claus does not
point me in the right direction to solve this:

If you want to do a repair in 10.3 you will need to get the repair CD from: ftp://beta.suse.com/private/10.3-repair-mini -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thanks, Jdd and Ken, downloading that 200MB mini iso now. I'm somewhat sceptical though, due to the fact that I have lots of updates on that box, but it's certainly worth a try.

Thanks Carlos, that was the hint I needed. There had been 3 more V 2.16 packages lurking around, and after downgrading them and their dependencies to yast 2.15 Yast was happy and back. The reason for these yast 2.16 packages sneaking in was a forgotten "factoy" installation source ... my own fault ... 2nd time that hits me ...x@#&%! $@(*#$% -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
