Description Martin Vidner 2006-03-06 09:54:43 UTC

I removed the directory /var/log/YaST2. on the next run, yast spilled errors about not being able to open the log and then died on an exception when trying to redirect blocxx logging.
It should either recreate the directory or simply say "no logging, no fun" and quit.

The directory is part of the RPM, so not urgent.

Comment 2 Stanislav Visnovsky 2006-07-19 09:26:37 UTC

Let's see

I cannot reproduce it. Please, attach the backtrace if it happens next time.
