yes, the change is 'wrong' - but unfortunately it has everything to do with the bug referenced: yast is crazy enough to willing to write to a directory that does not exist - and fails. and yast tries to do that during normal installation, irrespective of the fact that nothing reads or uses the file afterwards.

This results in test fails like https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/2977140#step/await_install/68

yast needs to stop doing that stupid thing (or be even more stupid and create the directory too, which I hope won't happen) .

And as filesystem package has more changes piled up that can't progress due to this, the easy/short-term solution until yast learns to behave is to (wrongly) keep on shipping those directories (which do no harm)

No, YaST is not writing to /etc/sysconfig/scripts but to /etc/sysconfig/network... So that change is wrong and does not fix the bug.

Now even I understand it; sorry.

The 'revert' was a bit too broad, we need the 30+- Remove /etc/sysconfig/network hierachy, not used by default anymore reverted;

dropping the /etc/sysconfig/scripts should stay in the diff
