Did you get a yast2 GUI? 'zypper in yast2' give you choices, one of which 
is to remove busybox-hostname, the other is to install it but some 
dependencies might be missing. I took the goat behind Door 3. It installed 
but it's the ncurses TUI.

Leap 16 is now downstream of SLE with some additional community packages. 
Yast has been replaced by Myrlyn. The Agama installed is a work in 
progress. A common complaint is people assuming it's a linear install like 
most other distros. If you don't select a DE from the menus on the left 
you get the straight server install. "WTF do I do now?"

Supposedly they will make it a little more user friendly. Then there's 
CockPit, which I'm not sure really works on Leap yet. 

If you want to live dangerously go for Tumbleweed or Slowroll. They're 
rolling distros. Even that's a little strange as updating is 'zypper dup' 
so every update is treated like a distro update.
