Description Mike Fabian 2008-06-11 12:04:36 UTC

YaST2 crashes at the start of the installation when installing in
Japanese.

I used qemu:

qemu-kvm -std-vga -no-quit -m 512 \
        -cdrom /mounts/dist/install/openSUSE-11.0-RC4/openSUSE-11.0-RC4-DVD-x86_64.iso \
	-boot d \
	-hda $NAME.img \
	-monitor stdio \
	-net nic,model=rtl8139 \
        -net user,hostname=$NAME \
	-vnc :5 \
	$@

selected Japanese in linuxrc and then did choose *all* defaults.

YaST2 crashes before the timezone dialog is reached.

Could this be related to bug #385172 ?

screen shot of qemu showing the end of /var/log/YaST2/y2log.

There is a core file in /.

I can confirm that this happens on a real machine installation, too.

YaST crashes rightly after pushing "Next" button in the first dialog containing the language/keyboard list and the license agreement.

The gdb backtrace is almost as same as above.

Comment 5 Takashi Iwai 2008-06-11 12:55:36 UTC

Correction: it crashes after selecting new install / update, i.e. just before timezeone.

And, I can confirm that this happens also on i386, too.

Ugh :-(
