Description Graham Leggett 2004-06-17 11:06:47 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.2)

Description of problem:
When an attempt is made to install docbook-dtds after openjade v1.3.2
has been installed, up2date complains that openjade v1.3.1 or higher
is needed. openjade v1.3.2 is present, thus the dependancy is met.

The most likely cause of this problem I suspect is that another error
is occurring, and the wrong error message is being displayed.

[root@gatekeeper root]# up2date docbook-dtds

There was a package dependency problem. The message was:
 
Unresolvable chain of dependencies:
docbook-dtds-1.0-17.2                    requires openjade > 1.3.1
 
[root@gatekeeper root]# rpm -q -a | grep openjade
openjade-devel-1.3.2-11.1
openjade-1.3.2-11.1
