Description Wilhelm Schütze 2010-01-10 13:29:34 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20100106 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.7

after updating from yast2-ncurses-2.18.10-2.1. to yast2-ncurses-2.19.0-1.1. I selected "software" and then "install or delete software" in yast (text mode, german). yast updates it's repos, seems to bring up the software choice menue but doesn't bring it up and falls back to the main menue.

Manual downgrade to yast2-ncurses-2.18.10-2.1. has solved the problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run normal system/security update with yast, yast2-ncurses-2.19.0-1.1. from the update-repo will be installed
2. start yast in text mode
3. try to install or delete software by the yast-menue
Actual Results:  
yast updates it's repos, seems to bring up the software choice menue but doesn't bring it up and falls back to the main menue remaining on "install or delete software"

Expected Results:  
yast should bring up the software choice menue for offering software to install or to delete

Manual downgrade to yast2-ncurses-2.18.10-2.1. has solved the problem.
