Did anyone found any workaround for the Yast installer who offers only the small window with "ok" and "cancel" in a loop?
Apt-get -s upgrade offers me the "option" to re-install all the packages I have on my system, which is not an option :D
I made all the official ftp updates on that machine... any hints? I like Yast installer and I want it back!!!
Radu,
So far the only answer I havve seen is to replace your qt3 rpm with qt3-3.1.1.71. The steps I took were to ftp the file to my download directory and then from the command line remove the current qt3 with the command 'rpm -e ---nodeps qt3-3.1.2-26' (without the quotes of course) then install the old one with 'rpm -Uvh qt3-3.1.1-71.i586.rpm'
You'll see some junk on the screen about not being able to remove some directories after removing the newer file but just ignore it and go on. I have no idea what if anything is broken by going back but at least you will have yast working again. You might want to go into Yast2 after the downgrade and mark qt3 to not upgrade so you wont have to go through this exercise for a while.
BTW, I checked the SuSE site and other places to see if I could find the "real" solution but found nothing. I'm surprised this hasnt drawn more attention from the Gurus out there unless the real fix is a secret. This affected 3 of 4 machines I have.
Good luck, Richard
Hi, I did have the same problem, going back to QT3 3.1.1-62 (from the CD) did it for me. It's strange that a few people have this problem and not more? Send a feedback to SuSE about it, never get a answer
By,
It seems that the people who have problems now are exactly the one who updated their KDE from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_8.2 ...could you please confirm?
Radu
I did it with apt-synaptic from ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/8.2-i386 -- Gerrit Jan Eldering SuSELINUX 8.2
