Description Arvin Schnell 2007-09-27 10:43:11 UTC 
A second search inside zypper can take "infinite" time.

How to reproduce:
d210:~ # zypper shell
zypper> search *
zypper> install <some not yet installed package>
zypper> search *

In the log it looks like a solver issue.

Horrible:

.
Please generate a testcase.
Comment 3 Stefan Schubert 2007-09-27 13:25:27 UTC 
Jano, could you please document in Wiki how a testcase can be generated in zypper ?

Comment 4 Jan Kupec 2007-09-27 13:44:10 UTC 
Of course, today i started to update zypper's wikies, will be done shortly.

I don't think this information fits into the link you mention. I'll add it to http://en.opensuse.org/Zypper#Troubleshooting, OK?
Comment 5 Stefan Schubert 2007-09-27 13:53:33 UTC 
OK, that's nice.
Another question: Why does zypper search makes a solver run here ?

Done.

> Another question: Why does zypper search makes a solver run here ?
Does it? It shouldn't! Only in install/remove/update commnads.

Comment 8 Stefan Schubert 2007-09-28 10:58:59 UTC 
The solver will be start due an establish call. So that is not the problem.
BUT:
getRequestedLocales(); returns an empty list.
Comment 9 Stefan Schubert 2007-09-28 11:06:17 UTC 
target commit removes the target from the pool cause noone do a refresh.
targetcommit has a parameter for refreshing the pool.
Jano please anable it if you are calling targetcommit in a zypper shell.

Cristian, what repositories do you have defined? It seems the problem manifests with certain repos only...
Comment 12 Forgotten User puKLX2-vO_ 2007-11-26 20:46:45 UTC 
Allthough I'm not Christian:

I could reproduce it with at least two different repositories. Last time:

search hugin
install hugin
search hugin

Active repos containing hugin where:

v | OpenSUSE_oss          | package | hugin | 0.6.99.4-33   | i586
v | openSUSE-10.3-Updates | package | hugin | 0.6.99.4-33.2 | i586
i | openSUSE-10.3-Updates | package | hugin | 0.6.99.4-33.4 | i586

Only the base repositories and packman, should be fairly straightforward to reproduce, happends always to me...

I believe this bug has been fixed in zypper 0.9.3, so i'm closing this report. If you come across it again, please reopen.
