Description Omair Majid 2015-04-02 19:04:24 UTC
Description of problem:
When debuginfo is missing, gdb suggests using debuginfo-install. This command uses yum, not dnf:

# debuginfo-install gdb-7.9-10.fc22.x86_64
Yum-utils package has been deprecated, use dnf instead.

dnf is the default way to install/update programs in Fedora 22: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ReplaceYumWithDNF


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gdb-7.9-10.fc22.x86_64


How reproducible:
All the time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. gdb gdb


Actual results:
Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install gdb-7.9-10.fc22.x86_64


Expected results:
Missing separate debuginfos, use: <some new dnf command>


Additional info:
dnf provides a debuginfo-install command which seems to be mostly compatible with the debuginfo-install command:
# dnf debuginfo-install gdb

Comment 1 Jan Kratochvil 2015-04-02 19:09:02 UTC
OK, 'dnf debuginfo-install' is in 'dnf-plugins-core'.

Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2015-04-02 20:10:28 UTC
gdb-7.9-11.fc22 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 22.

Comment 3 Omair Majid 2015-04-02 20:56:54 UTC
Thanks for the quick fix!

I am pretty sure it's dnf's fault, but there seems to be a catch in the debuginfo-install command with dnf:

# debuginfo-install gdb-7.9-10.fc22.x86_64

Yum-utils package has been deprecated, use dnf instead.
See 'man yum2dnf' for more information.
[ ... snip ... ]
---> Package gdb-debuginfo.x86_64 0:7.9-10.fc22 will be installed
[ ... snip ... ]

But dnf says:

# dnf debuginfo-install gdb-7.9-10.fc22.x86_64
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

If I remove the rpm version, things work:

# dnf debuginfo-install gdb
[ ... snip ... ]
 gdb-debuginfo                                  x86_64               7.9-10.fc22
[ ... snip ... ]

As it is, adding the rpm versions to the command to run ("dnf debuginfo-install gdb-7.9-10.fc22.x86_64") will probably make dnf do nothing.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2015-04-21 18:33:25 UTC
gdb-7.9-11.fc22 has been pushed to the Fedora 22 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
