I was wondering what was going on

I've been unable to use Yast to install any RPM's, and I was beginning to wonder what was going on. Previously, I've only had to drop to the command line when the RPM installation failed, in order to read the error output. But now, I've had to do that with everything. What a pain in the boot-sector!

Anyway, thanks for pointing out Steve's article. I hadn't caught up with it yet, and it fills-in the gaps a bit.

As for the YOU program itself, the only complaint I've had about it is that there were some patches you couldn't permanently disable, so my susewatcher icon was always telling me there was a patch available. Arrrgh. Now instead of fixing it, they replace YOU with something with even more problems.

Of course, with the installer broken, getting any fix for it's gonna be a laugh and a half! So much for automatic updates.
