Yast segmentation fault on openSUSE 42.1
Problem: Yast2 seg faults when going to network module. To reproduce, launch yast2 in CLI and then select System > Network Settings. After the Initialization screen, it seems to be probing network settings and hardware, then returns back to the Yast2 menu. This happens whether using the stock openSUSE 42.1 distro, or after doing zypper update on the stock distro.
The error seems to have something to do with zypper, but I don't know how to fix this:
in /var/log/YaST2/y2log, I find this:
