It seems like the Qt interface was meant to resemble the gtk interface. I find this disappointing because I really dislike the gtk front end for YaST2.

I feel like the information that's going to be presented when single-clicked is better served with a hover function. Having to double-click is intrinsically wrong when the rest of the interface is single-click. For the sake of continuity I really hope the devs will change their minds.

Bloody double-click

Everyone should check out the bug thread: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525287

It appears one can change to the YaST-gtk control centre version to get _single_click_ back.

The steps are:
- Install yast2-gtk package (from repo-oss)
- Go to yast->system->etc/sysconfig editor
- Browse to System->YaST2->GUI->WANTED_SHELL and choose gtk instead of auto

As noted by one user, it is a rather extreme solution to use the gtk version on KDE in order to get single click back. ... but it will get the Single click back. I may give it a try on my Sandbox PC.

I suggest updating to M6. Single-click isn't back yet; however, the password bug is fixed.

I updated yesterday and single click works now again for me

Thank you for the fix whoever it was

Have a lot of fun

It probably wasn't what you said, just where you said it.
