[yast-devel] software-install doesn't run ldconfig + suseconfig
Hello everybody! I'm new to this list and hope that this is the right place for my question. After an update of one of my machines from OS 11.1 to OS 12.1, I noticed that Yast's software-installer module does *_not_* run the ldconfig + suseconfig step after download and installing packages. Can anybody give me a hint why this could be and how I could track down this problem?

Does its .spec files contain following lines? %post /sbin/ldconfig see: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_scriptlet_snippets

I will check tonight (when I'm at that machine again). But I installed hundreds of packages during the last weeks and I remember that the "Linker" and "suseconfig" step were _never_ executed. (On that particular machine of course). If for example, I install a package, the Yast-window displays the "downloading ...." line, then the "installing ....." line and then immediately closes.

ldconfig should be run while "installing ...." is printed. I don't think that additional output from ldconfig is shown in that window. Is something not working on your machine that makes you think ldconfig did not run? Or do just miss ldconfig's output?

o.k., to be more precise: I have 2 machines, both OS 12.1. But Yast Software-installer behaves different: On the 1st machine: "downloading ...", then "installing ...", then the listbox is cleared, then "*preparing linker-cache ....*", then "running suseconfig ....", then the window is closed On the 2nd machine: "downloading ...", then "installing ...", then the window is closed The 2nd machine has some troubles. (Yesterday KDE login was not possible because of "ksmserver could not be started ...". I solved that by installing some packages and running ldconfig manually. Another problem ist that Knotify4 ist segfaulting everytime KDE wants to play some notification-sound) I just want to make sure that there's no missing ldconfig-run after I install some packages. And I want to knwo why two machines with the same OS behave different .... There *must* be some reason why Yast doesn't run that ldconfig/suseconfig step. And I want to find out ....
