up2date Patch

SRPM with integrated patch
It turns out I had a bug in my original patch and SRPM. My patched up2date would download all packages from all channels even when --channel was specified. I'm attaching a new patch and SRPM which fixes this problem. Created attachment 119630 [details]

SRPM for up2date-4.4.50-4 (RHEL 4 U2) with patch applied
Tried this and its great having problems with RHWS 4 and x86_64 arch downloads. I can download all i386 packages but no x86_64 packages with the --downloadall option and the systemid for an appropriate machine. If I use the --showall it shows me the x86_64 packages. Make sure you follow the instructions in the original bug description to the letter. For example, if you run this on RHEL 3 but you're downloading RHEL 4, you have to use --upgrade-to-release=4AS. This also works in reverse. If you're running on RHEL 3, but need to download 2.1, --upgrade-to-release=2.1AS. Also, for x86_64, make sure you specify --arch x86_64-redhat-linux. Thanks Brian. I was hoping that it was me not reading it properly but still no joy. If it helps here is a snip of what I get when 1/ I download the rpms and 2/ I show the rpms. The system I'm running from is a RHAS4 i386 box trying to get the downloads for a RHWS4 x86_64 box. 1/ /usr/mlocal/bin/up2date --nox --channel rhel-x86_64-ws-4 --showall --systemid /usr/mlocal/etc/systemids/systemid-smerla-RHWS4-x86_64 --upgrade-to-release=4WS --arch x86_64-redhat-linux --tmpdir /redhat/updates/4WS/x86_64 --force 4Suite-1.0-3.x86_64 Canna-3.7p3-7.EL4.x86_64 Canna-devel-3.7p3-7.EL4.x86_64 ..... 2/ /usr/mlocal/bin/up2date --nox --channel rhel-x86_64-ws-4 --downloadall --systemid /usr/mlocal/etc/systemids/systemid-smerla-RHWS4-x86_64 --upgrade-to-release=4WS --arch x86_64-redhat-linux --tmpdir /redhat/updates/4WS/x86_64 --force Storage directory: /repo/redhat/updates/4WS/x86_64 Fetching all package list for channel: rhel-x86_64-ws-4... ######################################## Canna-libs-3.7p3-7.EL4.i386.rpm... ######################################## FreeWnn-libs-1.10pl020-5.i386.rpm... ######################################## .... showall shows the x86_64 rpms I need. downloadall only gets the i386 rpms but appears to be on the right channel. If I run downloadall with all appropraite flags and system ids I can download all the x86_64 packages for a different RH version with a different systemid. i.e. everything works fine. If I run the same command with the same flags and system id on a i386 box it only downloads the i386 rpms. just so your sure I do have the --arch='x86_64-redhat-linux' specified both times This modified up2date works really well, but one minor problem I'm having is that it doesn't seem to fetch the i386 packages from the x86_64 repo. There are some 227 i386 packages in the x86_64 repo but they don't seem to show up when I run up2date like this: /usr/bin/up2date --channel rhel-x86_64-as-4 --downloadall --tmpdir /var/www/html/yum/4AS/updates/x86_64 --quiet Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? I'd like also the '--showall' switch to SEE all packages available for the specified channel. Product Management has reviewed and declined this request.
