    Yesterday I did a search in the repositories for a package, giving a pattern in the Package Manager search engine.
    The application froze and I had to kill the process.
    After that Package manager does not work anymore.
    Also YUM does not work and freezes after the command was issued.
    So I'm not able to install new packages anymore.
    Anyone can help me?
