Zenworks

From openSUSE

Software named "zen" does not exist. There is Zenworks, which consists of different programs:

zmd

zmd, the daemon

zmd in 10.1 crashes on startup if /var/lib/zmd/zmd.db is corrupted. zmd in 10.2 does not, but fixes the database instead, which is cool. Actually I think it crashed inside sqlite code, so it was not even zmd's fault.

rug

rug, a CLI interface for the daemon

rug never crashes, neither in 10.1 nor 10.2.

zen-updater

zen-updater, a GUI interface for the daemon. see.

zen-updater in both 10.1 and 10.2 crashes when communicating with a zmd that has a corrupted database, even if zmd itself does not crash, because of an unhandled exception in the GUI code.

See the thread zen bug? for more information on the subject.

ZENworks Linux Management Client

Libzypp

the library itself
