[opensuse-autoinstall] [WORKAROUND] Autoyast stage2 of OpenSUSE 13.2RC1 segfaults when using add-on section

Just FYI: Current workaround is blacklisting the "libproxy1-config-kde4" package... ------------- <software> <remove-packages config:type="list"> <package>libproxy1-config-kde4</package> </remove-packages> </software> ------------- Best regards, Joschi Brauchle On 10/22/2014 09:33 AM, Stefan Schubert wrote:

Thanks ! I will have a look on it.

I figured it is NOT the same problem, as y2log of the second stage clearly shows a segmentation fault!

I filed: http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=902086

Thank you very much for the documentation.

Some more information on the broken installation: It looks like it is the *same* problem that existed for 13.1: the add-on section.

I did two installations, with this diff between xmls: ------- --- test.xml 2014-10-21 17:05:15.000000000 +0200 +++ test.xml.broken 2014-10-21 17:05:04.000000000 +0200 @@ -4,7 +4,14 @@ <add-on> - + + <listentry> + <![CDATA[http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/lnt-sysadmin:/tools/openSUSE_13.2/]]>

+ <name>OpenSUSE13.2_HTTP_OBS:lnt-sysadmin:tools</name> + <product>OpenSUSE13.2 HTTP OBS:lnt-sysadmin:tools</product> + / + </listentry> + </add-on> ------- The installation *with* the add-on section specified is broken!

This looks pretty identical to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=846011

Shall I reopen or create new report?

As there are only 13 days to release, is there any chance to get this fixed before GM?

Hello Stefan,

I am currently trying to figure out what is going wrong with the 13.1 xml profile in 13.2. The installation is completely broken without any (gui) errors during the process.

But if I create a new profile for 13.2 from scratch, auto installation works fine. Thus, I'd like to revise my statement about Autoyast being broken, it is clearly not!

One question: Is there an up-to-date website that lists the changes from AY 13.1 to 13.2?

Google results: 1) http://doc.opensuse.org/projects/autoyast/ is about SLES11SP3 (which is strange as it is hosted by opensuse.org). 2) https://www.suse.com/documentation/sles11/singlehtml/book_autoyast/book_auto...

the same 3) http://users.suse.com/~ug/ is outdated as of 12.2.

There seem to be a lot of changes to the installer (plus new modules like yast2-auth-client to configure sssd) but no documentation to be found (easily) for users...

Thanks, Joschi Brauchle
