Yep, same problem here. PackageKit is likely the problem - whole list of
yast2-gtk updates that pertain to various kludges that cause this problem.
When I try to initiate the download from yast to I get a message that yast
can't access the PackageKet module. Previously and prior today it wouldn't
DL anything but jump straight to updating again, and again, and again....
my only recourse it seems is to manually DL the rpm updtaes and install them
by hand.

Anyone else having this problem and more importantly a fix or workaround?

TIA Curtis.
