   THANK YOU Malcolm!   
      I entered each of the three commands   
         On the first one a whole page+ turned up   
         On the second command a lot of programs "ruby2.7**" were to be   
   removed and new "ruby3.1***" installed along with Yast2   
         On the third command 2 packages were reinstalled   
      
   BOTTOM LINE: Yast2 now working fine - Thankyou   
     I'm 75 and still learning - but loving it!   
       Paul
