Then used Yast2 (graphical) to add lots of packages to install them. Worked fine for quite a while (ca. 60 %). Then the download stopped. Retrying it did not produce any progress but the report that the machine "2001:...." (forgot the rest, obviously the IPv6 address of download.opensuse.org). The download machine was temporarily not ping able (for whatever reason, another machine in the same subnet download.suse.com still was, so I suspect some strange problem on my cable providers side). Then stopped the procedure (skipped the installation) and restarted and everything went on properly. Added quite some packages this way again and never saw the bug again (did not see any network problems further on). My environment is IPv4 only, I did not have any IPv6 address configured (sitting behind a router machine running OpenSuSE 12.1 with IPv4 DHCP). No IPv6 addresses beside the link local ones. Ping6 immediately reported "no route" when trying to ping IPv6 addresses. Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Further installation was not possible. Expected Results: Installation should have completed. With "Retrying" the download should have completed after network recovery. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
