Hi, I have not been able to get the zen-updater working properly after upgrade to SuSE Linux 10.1. After a while I found the hint on the SDB: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:ZEN-Update_System_problem_in_10.1 I did the YaST online-update as described there and it seem to work OK, updating the following packages: libzypp-zmd-backend-7.1.1.0-42.46 libzypp-1.2.0-1.27 yast2-online-update-frontend-2.13.43-1.3 yast2-installation-2.13.132.4-0.3 yast2-packager-2.13.139-1.3 yast2-online-update-2.13.43-1.3 yast2-2.13.64.2-0.2 suseRegister-1.0-63.9 zmd-7.1.1.0-39.50 yast2-ncurses-2.13.40-1.3 yast2-qt-2.13.60-0.4 autoyast2-2.13.69-0.3 yast2-pkg-bindings-2.13.88-1.3 yast2-perl-bindings-2.13.5-1.3 yast2-security-2.13.4-0.3 autoyast2-installation-2.13.69-0.3 However, I could not start the zen-updater any more, it always crashes with the following error message: "System.NullReferenceExecption: Object reference not set to an instance of an object" etc. etc. Manual updates with rug also fail: "ERROR: Dependency resolution failed: Unresolved dependencies: Establishing script:libzypp-patch-zmdrestart.sh-2-1533-1.noarch[System packages] This would invalidate script:libzypp-patch-zmdrestart.sh-2-1533-1.noarch[System Marking this resolution attempt as invalid." And the YaST Online-Update does not work nay more either. Anyone with any idea where to look for the problems? The zmd appears to run, and I could not find anything supicious in /var/log/zmd-messages.log I have also downloaded the zen-updater-7.1.0-51.29 RPM and updated it manually, to no avail.
