    dhcpcd is broken, please use the dhclient package instead.

    The dhcpcd program on RedHat 6.2 has the same bug. They use the same

    When did you get it ? Does YaST2 aborts here ? Or is this line
    after YaST2 finished and is killed (in the last case it is ok,
    and I think that is what you are seeing).

    Linux is like a Vorlon.  It is incredibly powerful, gives terse,
    cryptic answers and has a lot of things going on in the background.
