Software manager won't open

Hi guys, I’ve looked around the forum and although other people had my issue, none of the solutions worked. All of a sudden I can’t open Yast2 GUI. Looking at other people threads, this should the relevant system infos:

sudo yast2 sw_single works fine in terminal and opens the text-based version.

su -l -c’/sbin/yast2 sw_single’

su -l -c’/sbin/yast2 --gtk’

Password:  
The GTK GUI has been retired, falling back to Qt.
