See my original post below - YAST & YOU all GUIs, incl. ncurses are gone - in 
the meantime I see no other way than to reinstall, if Santa Claus does not 
point me in the right direction to solve this:

Subject: [opensuse] Yast shows "Error while creating client module ..." after 
YOU yesterday
Date: Saturday 08 December 2007

Yesterday I did run an almost full YOU (OpenSuse 10.3 x86_64), accepting all 
preselected updates, including the kernel update (2.6.22.13-0.3-default). 
After that yast only starts the first window, the menu, listing the modules 
available. Clicking on one of them results in a little pop up window 
saying "Error while creating client module online_update" etc, for any 
module.

The same happens if I try to run the modules directly in konsole:

# you
Error while creating client module online_update
# /sbin/yast2 online_update
Error while creating client module online_update
# /sbin/yast2 sw_single
Error while creating client module sw_single

(No, this time there is not any message about "Error loading language plugin" 
(btdt). But to be sure here is what is installed:
# rpm -q boost libzypp zypper
boost-1.33.1-108
libzypp-4.1.1-5
zypper-0.9.1-7
)

I remember that there was a yast update in the security updates, but not which 
one (and I cannot run it again ... see above)

In order to fix it I used smart to update all yast2 modules with

Installing packages (4):
  dmraid  kpartx  lvm2    mdadm
--------------------------------

After that all modules have been version 2.15.x

Still no luck, then I realized that yast itself was 2.16 (yast2-2.16.1-6) so I 
downgraded it to yast2-2.15.58-12.x86_64.rpm

but still the same error.

I searched the list up and down, and also google does not help, so now I'm 
stuck and could use some help.

Thanks,
Matt
