It was filed a few bugs( 462352, 440066, 441329, 421660) about this behaviour, but you decided to disable this feature. I still can't get familiar with this behaviour. It's a really annoying, especially if i forget install some packages and i have to launch software management again. I dońt know any mainstream distros, which close their software management after installation. Can you tell me, what is benefit of this behaviour? I still haveńt found any.
I think 'summary' would be a subtle 'default': not giving the impression of having crashed in the installation (which is what I always think when the window just disappears) and not asking to do anything else.
to change the behaviour, look at /etc/sysconfig/yast2
## Type: list(close,restart,summary) ## Default: "close" # Set the default behavior of the package manager when package installation has finished. # Possible actions are: # close - just finish the package manager # restart - go back to the package manager, install/remove more packages # summary - display an installation summary dialog, there user can decide whether to finish or restart # The summary dialog is always displayed when an installation error has occurred. PKGMGR_ACTION_AT_EXIT="summary"
(just set yast the way you want it.. it's working great (ok: clicking 'back' might be a bit un-intuitive, but works fine).
Yes, i know about this. But i think common users, won´t know where and how can change this option. And i have experiences that its not usefull also for other users. http://forums.opensuse.org/how-faq-read-only/unreviewed-how-faq/406003-yast-...

I am also annoyed by that behaviour, for the same reason as anybody else: you mostly want to install some pkgs, but while busy firing up yast, and do the things nessesary to add the pkgs, 'one by one' in the search bar, choose each version or repo seperately, If not written down what has to be entered, and crossed out what is entered, you definately miss one or two... ;( And indeed, instead of patiently waiting until i, the user, decides, to stop or continue, the window closes. I allways was 'boss' of the pkgmngmnt. Now the pkgmngr is! It just does not feel right, and is time robbing, to repat all the steps again. In the early days, the user was king.... But those days are long gone.... unfortunately.. ;) -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (M9.) (Now or never...)
