Afflicted FC3 machine: $ rpm -ql compat-db-4.2.52-2 /lib/libdb-4.1.so /lib/libdb-4.2.so [...trimmed binaries and docs, no other libs provided...] Not-yet-upgraded FC3 machine: $ rpm -ql db4-4.2.52-6 /lib/libdb-4.2.so /lib/tls/i486/libdb-4.2.so /lib/tls/i586/libdb-4.2.so /lib/tls/i686/libdb-4.2.so /usr/lib/libdb-4.2.so /usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.2.so /usr/lib/tls/i486/libdb-4.2.so /usr/lib/tls/i486/libdb_cxx-4.2.so /usr/lib/tls/i586/libdb-4.2.so /usr/lib/tls/i586/libdb_cxx-4.2.so /usr/lib/tls/i686/libdb-4.2.so /usr/lib/tls/i686/libdb_cxx-4.2.so [...trimmed docs...] $ ls -la /lib/libdb-4.2.so /usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.2.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 843996 Sep 21 16:55 /lib/libdb-4.2.so* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 919576 Sep 21 16:55 /usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.2.so* As you can see, the compat binary is clearly missing the C++ version. This is loosely related to bug 133062, where Bill Nottingham comments that the C++ library was purposely removed to allow "the package to actually build with the current sets of compilers." If that applies to compat-db-4.2 as well, this bug should not be closed -- the symptom of a failure to install openoffice.org persists. Perhaps its more of a packaging issue for that RPM (e.g. openoffice.org-libs.spec file should gracefully handle db4.2 and db4.3 if compat-db isn't going to provide a C++ version). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 139822 *** As noted in bug 139822, the openoffice.org packages available from RawHide (FC development) correct this problem for me. This bug would be more rightly filed against the "openoffice.org" Component, but I'll leave it here just in case anyone comes in through the same path as I as a pointer to the Right Place. Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you! it looks as though Matt missed tagging the bug close state - fixing as currentrelease, as openoffice install bugs of that vintage are of historical interest only at this point Yeah. Thanks! |
