Hi, There are several bugreports in bugzilla that YaST logs are still increasing and they're very often impossible to attach them into a bugreport because of 5MB limit. I wrote a simple script that goes through the file given as a parameter and prints the output in this format: Example ------- Log line: 2007-08-27 10:32:48 <0> 10.10.103.73(3944) [parser::susetags] RepoParser.cc(parse):424 ReferenceCounted(@0xb4656f70<=1) Output: $VAR1 = { 'parser::susetags' => { 'RepoParser.cc' => { '0' => { 'count' => 1, 'size' => 72, } ... } ... } ... } The script is not ideal but could provide some hints where to look and which logs to remove or minimize. Without any offense, the biggest 'sinner' ;) is libzypp. I've used y2log-1 from bug #304815 as an example. The format is: Source File | Log Level | Count | Total Size in Bytes QueueItemRequire.cc 1 1956 285.556 0 450 88.196 ContextPool.cc 0 6145 844.020 Exception.cc 5 7807 1.531.198 Resolver.cc 1 6630 886.471 0 12858 1.664.251 MediaCurl.cc 0 5900 968.752 ResolverUpgrade.cc 1 15506 2.675.810 ExternalProgram.cc 0 7479 1.145.172 The log file has 15.601.918 bytes in total... Entries mentioned above are just an example and I know that common libzypp developer can find more information that I did in the output. Both the script and the exemplary output have been attached. Please, remove as much logs (mostly debugging entries) as you can.
