Description Kang-Jin Lee 2005-10-20 09:11:46 UTC

When invoking yast2 to add/remove packages to a running system, some package
descriptions are missing.

This seems to be the case for packages which are available for i586 and x86_64.

Please have a look at
http://www.opensuse.org/Submit_a_bug#Reporting_a_Bug

All SUSE Linux OSS bugs should go into the product SUSE LINUX 10.0 or
newer, because SUSE Linux is based on the SUSE Linux OSS code base.
Always choose the right product when reporting a bug

Comment 4 Kang-Jin Lee 2005-10-26 20:24:36 UTC

/etc/SuSE-release says:

SUSE LINUX 10.0 (X86-64) OSS
VERSION = 10.0

Language: German

Here is a piece of logfile on a x86_64 machine:

ULPackagesParser.cc(fromCache):378 Share package '3ddiag 0.728 2 ppc' not found

Please attach the whole logfile and name an example-package which does not work correctly.

Screenshot of yast2 with missing package descriptions/summary

This is a screenshot of yast2 showing the missing package descriptions and summaries. This should be reproduceable with just a few clicks, but if you have trouble to reproduce the problem, then it must be something wrong with my system rather than a bug. So, if yast2 on your x86_64 testsystem doesn't look like the provided screenshot, please close the bug.

Comment 7 Michael Gross 2005-10-28 13:48:42 UTC

I guess this is a x86_64-specific problem.
Jiri: Is it possible for you to check this out?

Comment 8 Kang-Jin Lee 2005-10-30 07:05:31 UTC

I goofed up the initial bug report but isn't the "Hardware" flag not to report architecture specific problems?

I see this problem on x86_64. On i586 it works as expected.

Comment 9 Christoph Thiel 2006-04-06 14:11:31 UTC

As this is happening on 10.0, I'll just close this bug WONTFIX now. Please feel free to retest on 10.1 >= beta9 and reopen in case this problem persists. (I haven't seen it with my recent installation tests.)

Comment 10 Jiri Srain 2006-07-26 12:40:57 UTC

You forgot to mark the bug as WONTFIX ;-)
