tried again with same result.
when installing with yast, it for some reason creates a defunct rpm process that
leads to the loop in the trigger's install-script.
Not caused by the modifications to update the icon-cache. (happens with 2.0.1
packages as well).
Honestly I still wonder why people use yast to install rpms (it is so slow and
cumbersome to setup for non-installation media - it cannot even update the
directory itself, etc).. but anyway, here are the steps to reproduce on SuSE
10.0 (download-edition) based on a gnome-system:
#########################
0) copy the installation-files flat to a directory (Yast doesn't search in
subdirectories, so move the desktop-integration package to the same dir as
the other ones)
1) Run yast from the "system"-menu (supply root-password)
2) In the "Software" category choose "change installation source" (not sure
about the english label, but the badly translated german one is
"Installationsquelle wechseln")
3) Choose to add a local directory from the "Add" button and point to the path
with the RPMs created in step 0) (note that the entry-field doesn't support
"~" to specify the home-directory)
4) Leave the installation-Sources setup and switch to "Install or Deinstall
Software" ("Software installieren oder löschen")
5) Since the package-selection window doesn't allow multi-selection, search for
"openoffice.org" (search only in package-name, not in description) then
choose to install all packages from the current selection from the
package-window's context-menu ("Alle in dieser Liste → Installieren")
6) Deselect the desktop-integraton packages (you may want to search for
"openoffice.org*menus" with wildcard-match enabled)
7) Choose the button "Apply" from the lower right corner.
Yast will now install OOo (without the desktop-integration package which we will
install in a second step) and run some Update-scripts (useless and not needed
for OOo, but run nevertheless)
8) After the installation of the OOo packages is finished, choose to install
additional packages and verify in a terminal that you still have a clean
environment (no defunct rpm-processes)
9) Choose to install the suse-menus package and click "apply"
The progress bar will reach 100% and then will stall. When checking in the
terminal, you'll notice a defunct rpm process.
10) Kill the install-script run by the trigger to allow the installation to
complete.
Since the trigger is not run, you'll have to create the symlink in /etc (and run
update-desktop-database) manually. Or better: Uninstall the menu-package and
install from commandline (where no problem occurs at all)
