... obvious

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2004-02-17 04:35:35 UTC

Obvious, but wrong fix.  It needs to read from the .discinfo file
instead which is on the other branch and just needs merging.  *sigh*

Comment 5 Almacha Raphael Champeimont 2004-02-29 10:44:37 UTC

I have an idea for the reason of this bug. 
I am using FC2test1 and system-config-packages-1.9.3-2.1 (last 
update) 
Start a terminal. 
Enter system-config-packages 
Try to install something 
In the terminal you will see something like: 
can't open /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/(package name .rpm) 
but if you look in the cdrom you will see that the directory is 
named Fedora and not RedHat. 
So I think that system-config-packages looks in the wrong directory. 
This bug certainly comes from Red Hat and when the directory name 
changed to Fedora they forgot to modifiy system-config-packages. 
This bug both exists in Fedora Core 1 and Fedora Core 2 test1. 
I hope it will be fixed in the next FC2. 
I havce now FC2test1 with an updated system-config-packages 
I looked in .discinfo file where I can read: 
Fedora Core 1.90 
i386 
1 
Fedora/base 
Fedora/RPMS -> This is right but system-config-packages seems not to 
read this line... 
Fedora/pixmaps

2002-08-10  Jeremy Katz  
        * src/method.py:
        read information out of .discinfo for all methods

Got no recent bugs about this, should be fixed by the above ChangeLog. If not,
please reopen.
