In OS 12.2-RC2 (build 0091-DVD) in 'Yast > Software Management > Search', PackageKit is blocking the repositories from loading. I've worked around this by killing the PackageKit process, then the repos load properly.
Has anyone else seen this happen? Is it a bug or expected behavior?
This is nothing new... it's been happening on multiple releases of openSUSE. You can wait for it to finish doing whatever it is doing... or kill it. My experience is that this collision only seems to happen immediately after a new install of openSUSE... and after the fresh install has "aged" a while (minutes to a couple of hours) it usually stops happening, and I rarely ever see it again... although if I restart a system it will pop up again if I start trying to install software immediately after booting.
Is it a bug... I'd call it a bug. Other people consider it a bug... and have opened bug reports on it.. for example: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=731450
This one is in state needinfo since 2011-11-22 18:50:29 CET. I suggest to close it with the reason requested information not provided. Agreed.
This is defect report for openSUSE 11.4 and should be moved to 12.1 by the reporter if it is still the same there.
Jeff Mahoney did this recently with many Linux kernel defects reported for older openSUSE versions which no longer get feeded by updates.
@Thomas and Vincent: Please consider to handle 692550 the same way.
Fine with me. Cheers, Thomas
Thanks,
Lars
