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.
Comment 1 Stanislav Visnovsky 2006-03-22 09:08:20 UTC 
The directory is part of the RPM, so not urgent.
Comment 2 Stanislav Visnovsky 2006-07-19 09:26:37 UTC 
Let's see
Comment 3 Stanislav Visnovsky 2006-07-19 09:27:14 UTC 
I cannot reproduce it. Please, attach the backtrace if it happens next time.
