Indeed. The more and more I use it, the more and more I begin to dislike 
it, because of the simple issues with it (like not working Webmin if not 
updated, downgrading performed by Yast in order to install something, 
just to upgrade right after that, wiping out your /etc/resolv.conf by 
Yast etc.).
