Discussed at 2012-05-07 QA meeting, acting as a blocker review meeting. Accepted as a blocker per criterion "There must be no file conflicts (cases where the files in some packages conflict but the packages have explicit Conflicts: tags are acceptable) or unresolved package dependencies during a media-based (DVD) install".

was mysql-connector-java recently added to @mysql in comps?   we have a -*gcj* in the kickstart to exclude all the gcj bits from the install media.

> was mysql-connector-java recently added to @mysql in comps?

Nobody told me about any such change AFAIR.  But in any case, switching the package to non-GCJ build is clearly the wave of the future, indeed shoulda been done some time ago if I understand the state of play for things Java.  Much better solution than excluding the package from the install.

mysql-connector-java isn't explicitly in comps, afaict. Something must have grown a dep on it.

I rather suspect all this Eclipse / Java-related excitement is caused by:

http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=comps.git;a=commitdiff;h=8b40d37d1b3101b6684a62ceec3bb5c856404b07

"Add eclipse-mylyn-fedora-integration to eclipse."

Can we just kick that out on the grounds it's causing trouble and is late? Or should we try and fix all this mess up?

Problem still exists on 17.TC4 DVDs.

17.TC4 i386 DVD:

package: 1:mysql-connector-java-5.1.17-4.fc17.i686 from myrepo
  unresolved deps: 
     libgcj_bc.so.1
     java-gcj-compat >= 0:1.0.31
     java-gcj-compat >= 0:1.0.31

17.TC4 x86_64 DVD:

package: 1:mysql-connector-java-5.1.17-4.fc17.x86_64 from myrepo
  unresolved deps: 
     libgcj_bc.so.1()(64bit)
     java-gcj-compat >= 0:1.0.31
     java-gcj-compat >= 0:1.0.31

dgilmore says this is because we pulled mysql-connector-java-5.1.17-5.fc17 via a side repo, it's not pushed stable. because it's not pushed stable, mysql-connector-java-5.1.17-4.fc17 is still available in the official repo. and since -5 is noarch while -4 is arch, we wind up with *both* the noarch -5 packages *and* the arch -4 packages on the DVD.

once -5 is pushed stable, -4 will be unavailable, and we'll be ok.

Problem still exists on 17.TC5 DVDs (identical messages as in comment 8).

mysql-connector-java-5.1.17-5.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

This should mean that the *next* compose will work.

Confirmed fixed in 17.TC6. No repoclosure problems.
