Blew up my Yast install on an opensuse 11.0 install. From the command line, running yast in ncurses mode just comes up with empty screen.
From the GUI, I see the message from the title.
I don't see any useful error messages in yast logs or any other logs for that matter.
No idea where to begin, and don't even know how I can resurrect Yast2 from the install media.
Have you tried using zypper?
From a terminal go su and do:
zypper ref
zypper up
that will refresh the repo's and run updates.
=================================
Did you try booting to level3 user and then go su and run:
yast
this should launch a basic form of yast - keyboard only
Yes, zypper itself works fine, and both of the operations you suggest have no problems. I can also run the terminal version of yast, but this comes up completely blank - all of the Yast menu trees are missing.
try this:
zypper in yast* -f
or
zypper in yast2* -f
the -f should force re-install of all yast modules
Thanks. That got Yast back, but it is in kind of an odd state - it keeps reporting the same patch updates as available even though I've already installed them.
What are they?
You could always try:
zypper up
'filesharereset'and 'kdenetwork3-instantmessenger'
Whatever was in the hopper when this started, I suspect.
'zypper up'
just reports "Nothing to do".
This was a bug in 11.0Quote:
