(to be done at the console as root). 1. you need to remove the KDE4 factory entry (no. 10 in the list). # zypper mr -d 10 Check at this stage, if yast2 works (mostly it should not). Proceed to the steps below. 2. switch to level 3, we need to shutdown the X/KDE env. # init 3 3. remove libyui. This will remove all yast2-* packages. Type YES and get going # zypper remove yast2-libyui 4. we reinstall the yui and the bindings # zypper install yast2-libyui # zypper install yast2-ycp-ui-bindings 5. we install the updater component # zypper install yast2-update 6. now we install yast2 qt stuff # zypper install yast2-qt 7. once all the steps above have completed successfully, please reboot the system. Summary . the steps illustrated above are used to actually fix the yast2 removal related issues . KDE4 factory has been removed, since you are on KDE 3.5.x 8. After you login into the system, try running yast2 and hopefully, it should work without issues. Let me know either way. thanks Saifi. -- Regards, Rajkumar Goel www.twitter.com/rajkumargoel www.latestfever.blogspot.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Umbrello 2.2.4 ships with KDE 4.2 and would require Qt 4.4.x So, our troubleshooting and installation strategy needs to 1. get the system in proper shape as far as yast2 is concerned 2. specify a proper repository for KDE 4.2.x stuff 3. install Umbrello 2.x Please let me know. thanks Saifi.

(to be done at the console as root). 1. you need to remove the KDE4 factory entry (no. 10 in the list). # zypper mr -d 10 Check at this stage, if yast2 works (mostly it should not). Proceed to the steps below. 2. switch to level 3, we need to shutdown the X/KDE env. # init 3 3. remove libyui. This will remove all yast2-* packages. Type YES and get going # zypper remove yast2-libyui 4. we reinstall the yui and the bindings # zypper install yast2-libyui # zypper install yast2-ycp-ui-bindings 5. we install the updater component # zypper install yast2-update 6. now we install yast2 qt stuff # zypper install yast2-qt 7. once all the steps above have completed successfully, please reboot the system. Summary . the steps illustrated above are used to actually fix the yast2 removal related issues . KDE4 factory has been removed, since you are on KDE 3.5.x 8. After you login into the system, try running yast2 and hopefully, it should work without issues. Let me know either way. thanks Saifi.

I use opensuse 11.0 with KDE 3.5 yast gave me a error signal 6 and it wouldn't start. so I uninstalled it ,now I don't know how to install yast again. hi Rajkumar: There was a very very simple way to fix this issue when you ran YaST2 it would have written detail about YCPlugin exception along with error 6. That would have told you about the library involved. Next, would be to issue the command 'zypper lr --details' and look for the library name in the output or post the result to the list. once you know the numeric id of the library, the following command would do the magic. zypper mr -d numeric-ID this clears up the inconsistent state and you need to reboot the system. at grub boot screen, press ESCAPE key and then remove all options apart from root= entry at VGA= entry. Append the number 3 and boot up the system. Login as root and run the command 'zypper dup' now login with your user-id and 'startx' and it should go fine. this is how the YaST error states are cleared. when encountering a error, it is very important to try and understand . What has happened . Why it has happened . What is a possible solution Thats what good engineers do ! thanks Saifi.

I didn't try it cuz I was anyways changing the OS to ubuntu :) uninstalling YaST is not the solution. Installing Ubuntu is also not the solution ! Ubuntu users will earn my respect if they are able to technically analyse a situation and also be able to discuss a situation with technical details. a wise man once said: never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence. Have a terrific weekend. thanks Saifi.
