The GFS kernel modules have now been rebuilt for the latest FC4 kernel (2.6.14-1.1653_FC4). Closing bugs in MODIFIED state from prior Fedora releases. If this bug persists in a current Fedora release (such as Fedora Core 5 or later), please reopen and set the version appropriately. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows; U; AIIEEEE!; Win98; Windows 98; en-US; Gecko masquerading as IE; should it matter?; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050217 Description of problem: It should be a relatively simple task to upgrade kernel from packages in updates. But it is not - in fact it appears to be impossible. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.13-1.1532_FC4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.rpm -Fvh rpm -Fvh kernel-2.6.14-1.1644_FC4.i686.rpm kernel-devel-2.6.14-1.1644_FC4.i686.rpm kernel-doc-2.6.14-1.1644_FC4.noarch.rpm cman-kernel-2.6.11.5-20050601.152643.FC4.17.i686.rpm GFS-kernel-2.6.11.8-20050601.152643.FC4.19.i686.rpm gnbd-kernel-2.6.11.2-20050420.133124.FC4.52.i686.rpm dlm-kernel-2.6.11.5-20050601.152643.FC4.16.i686.rpm 2. 3. Actual Results: error: Failed dependencies: /lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 is needed by cman-kernel-2.6.11.5-20050601.152643.FC4.17.i686 /lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.11.8-20050601.152643.FC4.19.i686 /lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 is needed by gnbd-kernel-2.6.11.2-20050420.133124.FC4.52.i686 /lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 is needed by dlm-kernel-2.6.11.5-20050601.152643.FC4.16.i686 Expected Results: Install should have completed successfully. Additional info: Most of the above modules appear to have been created on 21st Nov, but the kernel was compiled on 28th November. So the {cman,GFS,dlm,gnbd}-kernel packages where compiled on system running kernel-2.6.14-1.1637_FC4, then the new kernel was compiled and released. But isn't that a*^#-about-face? Where are the {cman,GFS,dlm,gnbd}-kernel packages that were compiled for the new kernel-2.6.14-1.1644_FC4? Surely the procedure should be: 1. build kernel 2. install kernel 3. compile {cman,GFS,dlm,gnbd}-kernel 4. release kernel and {cman,GFS,dlm,gnbd}-kernel to updates Only if you do that will it be possible to freshen kernel etc using rpm packages (without -force).
