Description

Proposed as a Blocker and Freeze Exception for 29-beta by Fedora user sgallagh using the blocker tracking app because: "The installed system must be able appropriately to install, remove, and update software with the default console tool for the relevant software type (e.g. default console package manager). " I'm on the fence about whether this is a real blocker, since it *appears* to be cosmetic... it doesn't seem to stop real updates of the affected packages from occurring when they become available. However, it certainly *looks* alarming and would lead users to assume something was broken. Discussed during the 2018-08-20 blocker review meeting: [1] The decision to classify this bug as an "AcceptedBlocker" (Final) was made as it violates the following criteria: "The installed system must be able appropriately to install, remove, and update software with the default console tool for the relevant software type" [1] https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2018-08-20/f29-blocker-review.2018-08-20-16.00.txt Discussed during the 2018-08-20 blocker review meeting: [1] The decision to classify this bug as an "AcceptedFreezeException" was made as, while this is also a blocker, we would like to have this fixed and if it can be done safely, we are all for this. [1] https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2018-08-20/f29-blocker-review.2018-08-20-16.00.txt *** Bug 1622295 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 1624373 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I ran following: docker run -it fedora:29 /bin/bash (instead of steps 1-3) and then followed steps 4-7 I couldn't reproduce the problem. Could also someone else confirm that? I tested it with the latest dnf-3.5.1 You need a package with a module version more recent than the version in F29 and it looks like meson and ninja-build have had recent updates which stop that being the case Instead try with dnf install perl-HTTP-Tiny which is currently showing the problem for me. teuf notes in https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7827#comment-532084 that this is particularly unfortunate in conjunction with the problem described there - modules that are intended to be used for server-side flatpak generation only being exposed to users. This bug results in those modules being shown to users who just run 'dnf update', in a confusing error message that makes it look a lot like they're being told to enable those modules. BTW, dunno if it has been mentioned yet, but note this: === [root@adam libdnf (master)]# dnf update Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:55 ago on Thu 20 Sep 2018 04:59:45 PM PDT.

[root@adam libdnf (master)]# === i.e. the bug doesn't occur if you do 'dnf update foo', where 'foo' is a package that has the problem when you do 'dnf update'. There's some difference between the 'dnf update' and 'dnf update foo' paths which is significant here. Here's an interesting patch which "fixes" the problem:
diff --git a/dnf/base.py b/dnf/base.py
index 96c1aab7..172a084a 100644

else:
# provide only available packages to solver otherwise selection of available
i.e. we basically disable the 'shortcut' branch in base.upgrade_all , which just calls `self._goal.upgrade_all()`, and instead force even a 'simple' `dnf update` through the 'complicated' branch of that method, which creates a query for 'available' packages, does a couple other things to it, creates a selector from the query, then passes the selector to `self._goal.upgrade()`.
If you look at this from the libdnf end, I think it's ultimately the difference between winding up in the 'no arguments' form of Goal::upgrade(), which does this:
void
Goal::upgrade()
{
pImpl->actions = static_cast<DnfGoalActions>(pImpl->actions | DNF_UPGRADE_ALL);
queue_push2(&pImpl->staging, SOLVER_UPDATE|SOLVER_SOLVABLE_ALL, 0);
}
and winding up passing a selector to Goal::upgrade(), which does this:
void
Goal::upgrade(HySelector sltr)
{
pImpl->actions = static_cast<DnfGoalActions>(pImpl->actions | DNF_UPGRADE);
sltrToJob(sltr, &pImpl->staging, SOLVER_UPDATE);
}
which in turn I think ultimately affects what libsolv solver_solve() does - because its behaviour is influenced by SOLVER_SOLVABLE_ALL .
Note, though, that my 'fix' isn't without its own interesting consequences. I have a couple of packages installed which I installed direct from Koji (because I needed them before they hit the repos). When I apply my patch and run 'dnf update', dnf actually wants to reinstall those packages from the repos: Reinstalling: abrt x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 511 k abrt-addon-ccpp x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 120 k abrt-addon-coredump-helper x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 32 k abrt-addon-kerneloops x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 44 k abrt-addon-pstoreoops x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 25 k abrt-addon-vmcore x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 37 k abrt-addon-xorg x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 36 k abrt-cli x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 16 k abrt-dbus x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 79 k abrt-desktop x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 16 k abrt-gui x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 113 k abrt-gui-libs x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 25 k abrt-libs x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 44 k abrt-plugin-bodhi x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 29 k abrt-retrace-client x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 51 k abrt-tui x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 28 k gnome-shell x86_64 3.30.0-7.fc29 updates-testing 1.4 M python3-abrt x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 40 k python3-abrt-addon x86_64 2.10.10-5.fc29 updates-testing 25 k I can confirm that this happens with dnf-3.5.1-1.fc29.noarch @dmach I can reproduce it on my machine.

To be honest, no, not really. What's basically going on here is pretty well understood already. But thanks. After upgrade from a perfectly working F28 to F29 beta (+ update after), I'm stuck with: Problem 1: cannot install the best update candidate for package bubblewrap-0.3.0-2.fc29.x86_64 - package bubblewrap-0.3.0-2.module_2123+73a9ef6f.x86_64 is disabled Problem 2: cannot install the best update candidate for package eog-3.28.3-1.fc29.x86_64 - package eog-3.28.3-1.module_2123+73a9ef6f.x86_64 is disabled Problem 3: cannot install the best update candidate for package exempi-2.4.5-3.fc29.x86_64 - package exempi-2.4.5-3.module_2123+73a9ef6f.x86_64 is disabled Problem 4: cannot install the best update candidate for package gimp-2:2.10.6-2.fc29.x86_64 - package gimp-2:2.10.6-2.module_2129+8576126a.x86_64 is disabled Problem 5: cannot install the best update candidate for package gimp-libs-2:2.10.6-2.fc29.x86_64 - package gimp-libs-2:2.10.6-2.module_2129+8576126a.x86_64 is disabled Problem 6: cannot install the best update candidate for package kubernetes-client-1.10.3-1.fc29.x86_64 - package kubernetes-client-1.10.3-1.module_2132+faf1362b.x86_64 is disabled Problem 7: cannot install the best update candidate for package libnghttp2-1.33.0-1.fc29.x86_64 - package libnghttp2-1.33.0-1.module_2177+2526c218.x86_64 is disabled Problem 8: cannot install the best update candidate for package libpeas-1.22.0-9.fc29.x86_64 - package libpeas-1.22.0-9.module_2123+73a9ef6f.x86_64 is disabled Problem 9: cannot install the best update candidate for package libpeas-gtk-1.22.0-9.fc29.x86_64 - package libpeas-gtk-1.22.0-9.module_2123+73a9ef6f.x86_64 is disabled Problem 10: cannot install the best update candidate for package libpeas-loader-python3-1.22.0-9.fc29.x86_64 - package libpeas-loader-python3-1.22.0-9.module_2123+73a9ef6f.x86_64 is disabled Problem 11: cannot install the best update candidate for package libuv-1:1.23.0-1.fc29.x86_64 - package libuv-1:1.23.0-1.module_2177+2526c218.x86_64 is disabled Problem 12: cannot install the best update candidate for package perl-DB_File-1.842-1.fc29.x86_64 - package perl-DB_File-1.842-1.module_2073+eebc5b71.x86_64 is disabled Problem 13: cannot install the best update candidate for package perl-HTTP-Tiny-0.076-1.fc29.noarch - package perl-HTTP-Tiny-0.076-1.module_2073+eebc5b71.noarch is disabled Problem 14: cannot install the best update candidate for package perl-Thread-Queue-3.13-1.fc29.noarch - package perl-Thread-Queue-3.13-1.module_2073+eebc5b71.noarch is disabled Nothing to do. Unsure how to even proceed. As the bug says, this doesn't indicate any actual problem. If that's all you get when you run 'dnf update', or something, it means your system is fully up to date. Is there a reason you say you're "stuck"? Is something that should work not working? Same bug here. I think I'm stuck because dnf says there are a lot of problem. And doesn't give more clue to how to fix them. I've got a couple of PC running F29, and the one that have this bug seems stuck. I mean by that, that it didn't get any more updates. But maybe that is just because beta is being released, so updates are quiet ? At least those messages are misleading. Why is it written "problem #" if everything is fine ? I also have to disable repo "*cisco*". don't know where they are from. It's an other problem I guess. And a kind of crash with fastestmirror. $ LANG=C dnfu Last metadata expiration check: 0:01:37 ago on Thu Sep 27 08:19:10 2018. Dependencies resolved.

Complete! How to fix that ? There isn't anything to fix. There isn't any problem. It's just a bug that dnf is telling you there is one, that's all. It's seeing that you have bubblewrap and eog and exempi and so on installed, and noticing that 'newer' versions of them are available in some disabled modules, and telling you about that. It shouldn't do that. But nothing is really wrong. This bug is relevant to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1616180 and we try to solve it as soon as it is possible. Is this also related to bug 1611664? *** Bug 1611664 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I've noticed the issue on rawhide too: Problem 1: cannot install the best update candidate for package libnghttp2-1.33.0-1.fc30.x86_64 - package libnghttp2-1.33.0-1.module_2177+076c917f.x86_64 is excluded Problem 2: cannot install the best update candidate for package libuv-1:1.23.0-1.fc30.x86_64 - package libuv-1:1.23.0-1.module_2177+076c917f.x86_64 is excluded I have a good news, the problem was fixed in libsolve, therefore we are going to back-port it. upgrading DNF `dnf update dnf` fixed this issue for me, thank you The problem is fixed in libsolv-0.6.35-3 that should be available in F29+.

Probably this could help http://miroslav.suchy.cz/blog/archives/2018/10/03/fedora_29_will_enable_you_modules/index.html I am sorry, the problem is fixed with libsolv-0.6.35-3 and upstream dnf (commit https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/commit/55ea10083506f58b0eb2d9e302df235414a140c1 and one after). Here is a copr repository for testing https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jmracek/dnf-upstream. Hope that it helps. I've had the same issues, fixed by upgrading to dnf-upstream (Comment #31) Thanks for testing. The patch will be released in dnf-4.0 That's a very scary version number, given that we're between Beta and Final right now. Please do not close distro bugs as NEXTRELEASE in this way. It is misleading and confusing as the bug is not fixed in the distribution yet. The bug should only be closed when the code to fix it is actually in the distribution release in question, that is, Fedora 29. *** Bug 1635694 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 1635910 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 1616042 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** As my problem (similar to above but for kernel modules) is with F28 I do not expect a fix at the moment. F29 official release is: 2018-10-30 Fedora 29 Final Release (GA) (Target #1) I will wait until the start of Nov and upgrade to F29. If fixed/not fixed I will report then (or open new bug if this is closed). I expect it should be fixed based on what I have read above (and in other bug reports). Luigi: anything you are seeing on F28 is extremely unlikely to be the same thing. It is more likely to be a genuine dependency issue. Please file a separate bug for it. Bug 1628103 show the same types of issues and I believe it has been addressed so all should be good. I agree looking in detail above my problem is probably not exactly the same. Sorry for adding the item I guess its a fork in an earlier bug and I am the other side of the fork.

After all in such copr repo, there is an updated dnf version, isn't it? So dnf generating misleading messages is considered to be not an issue nowadays?

Ukończono. Good thing is that disabling all 'fedora modular' repos resulted in dnf doing it's job without spitting messy messages like above. *** Bug 1554820 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** "So dnf generating misleading messages is considered to be not an issue nowadays?" Um. No. Nobody said that. That's why this bug report exists and the developers fixed it. So the libsolv update and DNF 3.6.1 update are now both stable. Can folks please check they have both libsolv-0.6.35-3.fc29 or later and dnf-3.6.1-1.fc29 or later, and confirm whether they still see the bug? Thanks. My issues described in bug 1635694 are not solved yet. As I wrote in comment #29 I am still seeing the problem with dnf-3.6.1-1.fc29.noarch libsolv-0.6.35-3.fc29.x86_64 However my testing in a container suggests that the fixes in dnf from jmracek/dnf-upstream will solve the problem when they reach Fedora. Using dnf-3.6.1-1.fc29 libsolv-0.6.35-3.fc29 Today "dnf update" works without any issue. Is it plausible that another (now updated) package was involved? Because with the same version of dnf and libsolv, some days ago I was facing the described issue. - package foo.module_xxxx+xxxxx.x86_64 is excluded Problem 1: cannot install the best update candidate for package foo.module_xxxx+xxxxx.x86_64 is excluded ...

In your example it might be that package foo has been updated, so the condition triggering the warning has gone away ie. the F29 package has a later version (under rpm sorting) than any module builds. For example one of the warnings I was seeing Problem 1: cannot install the best update candidate for package libnghttp2-1.33.0-1.fc29.x86_64 - package libnghttp2-1.33.0-1.module_2177+2526c218.x86_64 is excluded has gone now I have libnghttp2-1.34.0-1.fc29.x86_64 but I would expect the warning to come back when the nodejs-10 module is rebuilt giving an updated libnghttp2 dependant module package I have libsolv-0.6.35-3.fc29 and dnf-3.6.1-1.fc29 installed. "sudo dnf update" prints: Problem 1: cannot install the best update candidate for package gimp-2:2.10.6-2.fc29.x86_64 - package gimp-2:2.10.6-2.module_2129+8576126a.x86_64 is excluded Problem 2: cannot install the best update candidate for package gimp-libs-2:2.10.6-2.fc29.x86_64 - package gimp-libs-2:2.10.6-2.module_2129+8576126a.x86_64 is excluded Problem 3: cannot install the best update candidate for package libuv-1:1.23.0-1.fc29.x86_64 - package libuv-1:1.23.0-1.module_2177+2526c218.x86_64 is excluded Problem 4: cannot install the best update candidate for package nodejs-1:10.11.0-1.fc29.x86_64 - package nodejs-1:10.11.0-1.module_2200+adbac02b.x86_64 is excluded Problem 5: cannot install the best update candidate for package npm-1:6.4.1-1.10.11.0.1.fc29.x86_64 - package npm-1:6.4.1-1.10.11.0.1.module_2200+adbac02b.x86_64 is excluded Problem 6: cannot install the best update candidate for package perl-HTTP-Tiny-0.076-1.fc29.noarch - package perl-HTTP-Tiny-0.076-1.module_2073+eebc5b71.noarch is excluded Problem 7: package vlc-3.0.5-1.fc29.x86_64 requires libplacebo.so.5()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both libplacebo-0.6.0-2.fc29.x86_64 and libplacebo-0.5.0-1.fc29.x86_64 - cannot install both libplacebo-0.5.0-1.fc29.x86_64 and libplacebo-0.6.0-2.fc29.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package vlc-3.0.5-1.fc29.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package libplacebo-0.5.0-1.fc29.x86_64 OK, so, that confirms we need a DNF later than 3.6.1 to see the fix for this. I think I will backport the fix and do a build; we are frozen for Final now and I don't think it'd be a good idea to pull in a new major DNF release just to fix this... dnf-3.6.1-2.fc29 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 29. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-3a17006b01 Quick test in a container with perl-HTTP-Tiny package added dnf-3.6.1-1.fc29.noarch libsolv-0.6.35-3.fc29.x86_64 dnf update Last metadata expiration check: 0:07:26 ago on Tue 09 Oct 2018 03:21:57 PM UTC.

We know. dnf-3.6.1-2.fc29 has been pushed to the Fedora 29 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for instructions on how to install test updates. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-3a17006b01 Testing with: ~~~ $ rpm -q dnf dnf-3.6.1-3.fc30.noarch ~~~ It fixes most of the issues I observed, but there is still one: ~~~ $ sudo dnf update --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=rawhide -x kernel Last metadata expiration check: 0:03:04 ago on Wed Oct 10 10:15:27 2018.

I might report is separately ... % rpm -q dnf libsolv dnf-3.6.1-2.fc29.noarch libsolv-0.6.35-3.fc29.x86_64 The latest update from updates-testing fixes the modules-related issues for me. Vit: yeah, that seems slightly different to me. It would be interesting if it was a *regression* caused by the fix for this, though. Can you check that - did it work with the previous libsolv? dnf-3.6.1-2.fc29 has been pushed to the Fedora 29 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. dnf-3.6.1-2.fc29 and libsolv-0.6.35-3.fc29 installed. "sudo dnf upgrade" says: Problem: package libreswan-3.25-3.fc29.1.x86_64 requires libunbound.so.2()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both unbound-libs-1.8.1-1.fc29.x86_64 and unbound-libs-1.7.3-9.fc29.x86_64 - cannot install both unbound-libs-1.7.3-9.fc29.x86_64 and unbound-libs-1.8.1-1.fc29.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package unbound-libs-1.7.3-9.fc29.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package libreswan-3.25-3.fc29.1.x86_64 Is this a different bug/problem or still the same issue? Different bug. That's a real dependency issue. Looks like https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-7be27ff1d8 needs a libreswan build added. This was/is in fact blocking additional updates via "sudo dnf update" and/or "sudo dnf upgrade" from going forward. After finding this thread and running "sudo dnf update dnf" (which resulted in "nothing to do") "sudo dnf update" suddenly had 30 updates to do. I updated to F29 last night (2018-12-19) and I guess the "bug" is still there. $ uname -a Linux han 4.19.9-300.fc29.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Dec 13 17:25:01 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ rpm -q dnf libsolv dnf-4.0.9-2.fc29.noarch libsolv-0.7.2-1.fc29.x86_64 $ sudo dnf upgrade --refresh [sudo] password for thommym: Copr repo for qgis owned by dani 2.3 kB/s | 3.9 kB 00:01 etcher-rpm 955 B/s | 1.3 kB 00:01 Fedora Modular 29 - x86_64 15 kB/s | 28 kB 00:01 Fedora Modular 29 - x86_64 - Updates 16 kB/s | 26 kB 00:01 Fedora 29 - x86_64 - Updates 13 kB/s | 28 kB 00:02 Fedora 29 - x86_64 16 kB/s | 28 kB 00:01 google-chrome 1.2 kB/s | 1.3 kB 00:01 insync repo 2.5 kB/s | 2.9 kB 00:01 MySQL Connectors Community 2.3 kB/s | 2.4 kB 00:01 MySQL Tools Community 2.3 kB/s | 2.5 kB 00:01 MySQL 8.0 Community Server 2.3 kB/s | 2.5 kB 00:01 RPM Fusion for Fedora 29 - Free - Updates 6.8 kB/s | 9.8 kB 00:01 RPM Fusion for Fedora 29 - Free 9.0 kB/s | 10 kB 00:01 RPM Fusion for Fedora 29 - Nonfree - NVIDIA Dri 6.7 kB/s | 9.5 kB 00:01 RPM Fusion for Fedora 29 - Nonfree - Steam 8.0 kB/s | 9.2 kB 00:01 RPM Fusion for Fedora 29 - Nonfree - Updates 8.7 kB/s | 9.9 kB 00:01 RPM Fusion for Fedora 29 - Nonfree 9.1 kB/s | 10 kB 00:01 Fedora 29 - x86_64 - VirtualBox 55 B/s | 181 B 00:03 Dependencies resolved.
