Description Avi Kivity 2004-04-21 15:00:23 UTC
Description of problem: 
 
libaio RPM does not "provide" libaio.so.1 (although the file is there). this 
prevents installation of packages which require it (e.g. lam) 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
 
0.3.99-2 
 
How reproducible: 
 
 
Steps to Reproduce: 
1. rpm -q  --provides libaio 
   
Actual results: 
 
libaio.so.1.0.0 
libaio.so.1.0.0(LIBAIO_0.1) 
libaio.so.1.0.0(LIBAIO_0.4) 
libaio = 0.3.99-2 
 
 
Expected results: 
 
libaio.so.1 
libaio.so.1.0.0 
libaio.so.1.0.0(LIBAIO_0.1) 
libaio.so.1.0.0(LIBAIO_0.4) 
libaio = 0.3.99-2

This should work.  Can you please try this again and let me know if the problem
persists?  To be clear, I have been unable to reproduce this problem.

Comment 2 Avi Kivity 2004-11-02 08:58:59 UTC
It doesn't reproduce because lam now requires libaio.so.1.0.0 instead
of libaio.so.1.

From my understanding of shared libraries, it is customary to provide
libblah.so, libblah.so.x, and libblah.so.x.y:

<main_snapfs-avi> [avi@baboon src]$ ls -l /usr/lib/libz.so*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 Jul  1  2003
/usr/lib/libz.so -> libz.so.1.1.4
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 Jul  1  2003
/usr/lib/libz.so.1 -> libz.so.1.1.4
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        53884 Feb 24  2003
/usr/lib/libz.so.1.1.4


however I am no expert in these matters.

Comment 3 Jeff Moyer 2004-12-21 15:26:42 UTC
Please retest with the current versions of libaio and lam.  This issue should be
resolved.

Comment 4 Jeff Moyer 2005-04-11 20:10:37 UTC
This issue is fixed with libaio version 0.3.103.
