YaST2: Keyboard.rb:306:in `current_kbd': undefined method `empty?' for nil:NilClass
Last modified: 2020-01-16 21:16:53 UTC
Created attachment 826199 [details] Screenshoot I am testing appliance based on openSUSE Leap 15.2 development version (latest build as of today). I entered into YaST Language module and received error: Internal error. Please report a bug report with logs. Run save_y2logs to get complete logs. Caller: /usr/share/YaST2/modules/Keyboard.rb:306:in `current_kbd' Details: undefined method `empty?' for nil:NilClass Appliance URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:embar-:Lietukas/Lietukas_15.2_mini You can download ISO image for playing in virtual machine or using as LiveDVD/USB: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/embar-:/Lietukas/images/iso/?P=*15.2*

Does this work with Tumbleweed or Leap 15.1? I guess you tried Lithuanian there before, right? Does it also crash for other languages, or only for Lithuanian?
This is openSUSE Leap 15.2. This bug happens at opening of dialog. If I close error dialog, whole YaST module closes. Thus I have no opportunity to switch language via YaST. I encourage you to try ISO image in virtual machine to reproduce bug.
Sorry, but I really can't download various applicance ISOs and experiment with them. We already have a lot of different products to maintain. Please try to start this from a terminal window like in that other bug last week: Set the LANG and/or LC_MESSAGES environment variables and start that module. LANG=fr_FR yast2 language
Created attachment 826211 [details] LANG=fr_FR yast2 language - screenshot GUI remains in Lithuanian. Same bug.
I also tested openSUSE TW - here I can not reproduce.
OK, thanks for testing this again. Something must be different on your appliance ISO. It might be a missing file that this YaST module attempts to read, or a missing configuration setting in a config file. But independent of that, yast2-country should not crash with such a nil:NilClass exception. If anything is missing, it should properly report it to the user and then maybe terminate itself.
Should be fixed with version 4.2.11 https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/758604
Sadly not fixed. it failing when reading values 2019-12-16 15:13:44 <1> localhost.localdomain(7541) [Ruby] modules/Keyboard.rb:103 keyboard_on_entry: https://github.com/yast/yast-country/blob/master/keyboard/src/modules/Keyboard.rb#L99 but @curr_kbd should not be nil. So we need to sanitize it in reading. But why read failed? localectl has its value 2019-12-16 15:13:44 <1> localhost.localdomain(7541) [Ruby] lib/cheetah.rb:208 Standard output: VC Keymap: lt so it see lt. but in data we have only lt.baltic. https://github.com/yast/yast-country/blob/master/keyboard/src/data/keyboards.rb#L180 So what is problem? We do not know all variants of given language and we set lt.baltic, but there are more variants. E.g. localectl knows this keymaps for lt: lt lt-ibm lt-lekp lt-lekpa lt-std lt-us lt.baltic lt.l4 lt.std I am not sure how to handle it. Probably we need to fallback somehow? at least we should not crash if given keymap missing in our map.
fix is in review https://github.com/yast/yast-country/pull/238
fix merged
Today I tested openSUSE Leap 15.2 based appliance with yast2-country 4.2.14 and I confirm that this is bug is fixed in with that version. Thanks!
