Situation
Using the GUI or ncurses method
of YaST produces "segmentation fault" errors, regardless of which
YaST module is invoked.
Examples:
# yast2 online_update
YaST got signal 11 at YCP file Wizard.ycp:47
/sbin/yast2: line 276: 17044 Segmentation fault $ybindir/y2base
$module "$@" qt $Y2_GEOMETRY $Y2QT_ARGS
#yast online_update
/sbin/yast: line 276: 17214 Segmentation fault $ybindir/y2base
"$module""$@" ncurses $NCTHREADS
# yast2 ldap

Resolution
Old yast2-ncurses and yast2-qt
rpm's were being used.
Updating to the latest released rpms fixes this problem.
