> yast2 -i $(cat susedvd.lis) ThereUpon YaST2 has hanged because of dangling reference in y2base. [ctrl]-[C] YaST got signal 2 at YCP file /usr/share/YaST2/clients/sw_single.ycp:187 YaST got signal 3 at YCP file /usr/share/YaST2/clients/sw_single.ycp:187 killall yast2 Beendet Unfortunately even a reboot could not free the lock on the package management system; yast2-message (zypper ditto): Zugriff auf Paketmanagement gescheitert anderer Prozeß blockiert ... In a fact this has revealed two problems: * dangling reference in y2base * missing signal handlers for YaST (quit & free lock); free lock on shutdown
Created attachment 178162 [details] output of yast The konsole output of 'yast2 -i $(cat susedvd.lis)' has been clipped into backtrace.txt.
Created attachment 178163 [details] file with list of packages to be installed
The dangling reference & crash appears to be a dupe of https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=332917 The package management lock is separate though.
lock has been freed by yast-installer by several closewins of error messages.
Created attachment 178176 [details] valgrind log For the backtrace has not exactly been the same here you have another valgrind log: valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes yast2 -i $(cat inst/zusedvd-inst.lis)
Unfortunately there seem to be many different memory allocation problems occurring in very different situations: When selecting 'install more packages' after successfull install.: YaST got signal 11 at YCP file /usr/share/YaST2/clients/inst_packages.ycp:39 /sbin/YaST2: line 386: 11961 Speicherzugriffsfehler $ybindir/y2base $module "$@" "$SELECTED_GUI" $Y2_GEOMETRY $Y2QT_ARGS Will probably have to run YaST2 with valgrind by default to find out more.
Additionally some strange messages can be found in /var/log/y2logRPMc (may not be related to these crashes): Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 623: _dl_open: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize (0, args.nsid)->r_state == RT_CONSISTENT' failed!

This bug might be a duplicate of bug #332917, could update libzypp and curl packages and try to reproduce it again?
No errors have occurred any more in similar settings. curl-7.16.4-16 yast2-2.15.58-12 zypper-0.8.25-0.1 libzypp-3.26.3-1.1
