And presumably it didn't work - that's worth knowing. I normally
update from DVD and I've used 'repair' on a few occasions.
And I learned from this thread that the console version (ncurses I
assume) of yast doesn't include all the functions of the GUI
version. I assumed it did. When I recently updated to 15.6 the
GUI yast didn't work and I used the console one for a while -
quite nostalgic!
