Updates method.py
This patch updates method.py with the Fedora cd path. I compiled it and tested
on two Fedora Core 1 Systems and they both worked.
But that's just a default that's used if the .discinfo file doesn't exist and have the package path... and it works here for me. I'm having the same problem, terminal output as follows ---Start--- WARNING: perl-Digest-SHA1 had an old state and tried to set it again. 0 to 2 selecting already selected package perl-Digest-SHA1 The file /mnt/cdrom1/RedHat/RPMS/perl-Digest-SHA1-2.01-15.i386.rpm cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file, a bad package, or bad media. Press <return> to try again. ---End--- I've applied the patch mentioned above and rebuilt the source rpm and installed it and it works great now. I'm also having the same problem. Looking at the source code for method.py it doesn't seem like the package path is read from .discinfo. In class RedHatCdromInstallMethod method readDiscInfo only timestamp and releaseName are read from .discinfo. Adding self.packagesDir = discid.rpms_path to readDiscInfo fixes the problem and i can install rpms again. The method.py file as a whole could use some cleaning up ;) Same problem here. (bump :p) I can't install the development tools because of this problem, but I need them to compile Nvidia kernel interface/module/whatever. If I install the redhat-config-packages source package and modify the methods.py file I can't recompile it because the dev tools are missing. In short, I'm too lazy to install 38 packages by hand. :) Help! *sigh* Fixed in 1.2.7 -- I know I had this working at some point :/ http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/redhat-config-packages/ will have the package as soon as it's done building. *** Bug 109439 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 109473 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Can this be pushed onto up2date? I'm not sure what policy has been set for Fedora on which non-security fixes can go to up2date, but this one seems like a no brainer to me. *** Bug 109530 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 109551 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 109685 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 109931 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 109999 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 110412 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 110580 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I tried to install the 1.2.7 RPM and here is my output file /usr/share/redhat-config-packages/method.py from install of redhat-config-packages-1.2.7-1 conflicts with file from package redhat-config-packages-1.2.6-1 Michael P, rpm -U to upgrade a package rather than rpm -i to install.
