Perhaps this should marked as a security bug and escalated, since it is stopping FC2 machines from applying errata automatically if they have mozilla installed? I've received the same sort of error when attempting to use yum to update my system: [root@sargon rbulling]# yum -y update Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Base Server: Dag RPM Repository for Fedora Core Server: Fedora Linux 2 - i386 - freshrpms Server: JPackage 1.5 development RPMS (PKR Internet only) Server: JPackage 1.5 non-free RPMs (PKR Internet only) Server: JPackage 1.5 for Fedora Core 2 Server: JPackage 1.5, generic Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Released Updates Finding updated packages Downloading needed headers Resolving dependencies ......Unable to satisfy dependencies Package mozilla needs desktop-file-utils >= 0.9, this is not available. We made a mistake and added the FC3 desktop-file-utils version dep to the FC2 mozilla update. http://people.redhat.com/wtogami/temp/mozilla/ Please verify that the candidate update packages here works on FC2 with the FC2 standard desktop-file-utils. > Please verify that the candidate update packages here works on FC2 with the FC2 > standard desktop-file-utils. I downloaded and intalled mozilla-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-nss-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-nspr-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm from http://people.redhat.com/wtogami/temp/mozilla/i386 and those packages seem to install (apart from a "command not found" error) and run properly # rpm --upgrade mozilla-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-nss-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-nspr-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.29659: line 1: update-desktop-database: command not found # The candidate update packages install, but the RPM script calls update-desktop-database, a program included in the FC3 desktop-file-utils, but not in FC2. # rpm -Uvh mozilla-nspr-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-chat-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-nss-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm mozilla-mail-1.7.6-1.2.3.i386.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:mozilla-nspr ########################################### [ 17%] 2:mozilla-nss ########################################### [ 33%] 3:mozilla ########################################### [ 50%] /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33363: line 1: update-desktop-database: command not found 4:mozilla-mail ########################################### [ 67%] 5:mozilla-chat ########################################### [ 83%] 6:mozilla-js-debugger ########################################### [100%] [root@sargon mz]# locate update-desktop-database [root@sargon mz]# As for whether the new packages Actually Work, I'll let you know (I'm still runing the old binaries as I post this). OK, despite the command not found warning on install, Mozilla 1.7.6 seems to be working Just Fine. It continues to launch from the GNOME desktop start button. Good thing we tested it before pushing, uploaded another candidate -1.2.4 which is the same thing except removed update-desktop-database http://people.redhat.com/wtogami/temp/mozilla/ Updated once more as -1.2.5 to fix the gtk system colors. Will push this to updates after someone tests it and reports back. Installed mozilla-1.7.6-1.2.5.i386.rpm, mozilla-nss-1.7.6-1.2.5.i386.rpm, and mozilla-nspr-1.7.6-1.2.5.i386.rpm with no errors and they seem to be working correctly. I can confirm, too, the packages available currently on http://people.redhat.com/wtogami/temp/mozilla/ installed on my fc2 system correctly without warnings (did "rpm -Fvh" on the command line). Browser works. Issued in FC2 updates. |
