Description of problem:
After upgrading FC2 from 2.6.5-1.358 (default) to 2.6.6 to work around
ndiswrapper issue, system-config-network crashes whenever launched.

Component: system-config-network
Version: 1.3.16
Summary: TBf3ca2c97 NC_functions.py:54:kernel_version:ValueError:
unpack list of wrong size
Traceback (most recent call last):

Local variables in innermost frame:
release: 2.6.6-Quint-custom
machine: i686
version: #1 Fri May 21 13:54:29 EDT 2004
nodename: Q-Fedora.atlanta.com
sysname: Linux

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-network-tui-1.3.16-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade kernel to 2.6.6 (from kernel.org)
2. use .config from 2.6.5-1.358 with virtually no changes
3. ensure 4KSTACKS is disabled in .config (reason for kernel upgrade)
4. launch system-config-network
    

Actual Results:  1. Prompts for root passwd
2. Crashes (trace in description)

Expected Results:  1. Prompt for root passwd
2. Launch system-config-network

Additional info:

Utility worked fine under FC1 and FC2 before upgrading kernel.

I'm unable to duplicate this with a 2.6.6 kernel.

Looking at the code it seems to be because you added an extra "-" in
the release and the config tools don't expect that to happen.


Comment 2 Quint Van Deman 2004-05-23 21:20:00 UTC
That was it...

Recompiled without the dashes in the extra version and everything
returned to perfect condition.

Thanks for the help...
