YaST is missing after update

dad # yast2 bootloader
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'YUIPluginException'
  what():  Couldn't load plug-in qt

Could this be the problem? a missing QT plugin?

Sorry about the lack of inventiveness. I am a firm supporter of Linux and specifically openSuSE for 20+ years, and I wish my brain worked to the same level of many of those such as yourself that have supported this community for years, but this is all beyond me. I am a bit frustrated that the system could be hosed so totally by using the YaST Online Update. I would think there might be some safeguards built in that would not allow Tumbleweed to be trashed without a serious warning. At this point I am hoping to get the system back running as clean as it was before the update, but then have a means to update it. I

I really appreciate your time and help. If this next step doesn’t work, I think I am going for the reinstall and starting over. I don’t want to waste any more of anyone’s time.

You should not use YaST Online Update on Tumbleweed (well, I assume it is harmless to do so, because there will nothing be to do).

Tumbleweed should only be updated using

zypper dup

Said that (or maybe repeating that), I am a bit lost on what is still wrong on your system.
Maybe wait a few hours (or a day) for a real Tumblweed person (I do not use it, but the things I advised so far are very general and TW agnostic).

Please show


rpm -qa | grep libyui

Henk,
Thank you for all of your help. It looks like everything in YaST is back, but something is preventing it from working.

I am running the zypper dup and hopefully it will clean up the mess.
Right away there are conflicts in Mesa. I will take the #1 recommendations and see how it goes.

Re. the segfault of zypper: try again. The bug seems to be in libcurl.

Dri-nouveau might be an issue. On the zypper dup, the following came up.

(Use the Enter or Space key to scroll the text by lines or pages.)

In order to install 'Mesa-dri-nouveau', you must agree to terms of the following license agreement:

WARNING: Nouveau DRI/3D driver selected.

This driver is considered experimental and is known to have issues with
applications that use certain 3D acceleration features of modern
NVIDIA hardware.

Symptoms include application crashes or lockups & crashes of your system's
graphical environment. Older Hardware and less demanding applications may work
just fine and do benefit from the Hardware acceleration features this driver
offers over software emulation.

If I reject the license for Nouveau then the zypper dup cancels.
I do have nVidia video cards

I am going to try again and accept it.

still ended with a fail

First thank you to Henk and Knurpht for your help.

I reinstalled so this is a fresh start, but still looking for help
The biggest issue at this point is not being able to install additional software via zypper or YaST

Segmentation fault (core dumped) with zypper install and also YaST install

I am adding/moving this to the existing segfaults thread; zypper segfaulting
It looks like it may be the same issue and the detail below might help I hope.

Where this is now, the latest steps in this issue:

  • Saved the downloaded rpms from /var/cache/zypper to a backup directory
  • Reinstalled and have a clean installation (openSuSE TW - gecko-rolling - Cinnamon)
    • It looks and runs amazingly smooth, love it.
    • Yast Control Center and all functionality is where it should be
  • Mapped the backup rpms as a local repository and gave it priorety
  • Ran zypper dup to update the system - it updated 1523 files
  • Disabled the local zypper backup repository
  • Ran zypper dup to update the system - it updated 18 files
    • I saved both zypper dups as a text file if anyone needs it

So far so good. Everything is working. The only thing that changed is it lost the openSuse Oxygen icons in the process

  • Using the YaST Control Center tried to install wine.
    • There were no exceptions or conflicts but the installation crashed before it was finished
  • Using the YaST Control Center tried to install gimp.
    • There were no exceptions or conflicts but the installation crashed before it was finished
  • In Terminal ran zypper install q4wine, it failed.
