It sounds to me like this is where the problem lies -- OpenSSL 0.9.8 and 0.9.7 are not binary-compatible, and while creating the symlink may get past the immediate error starting yum, it doesn't keep problems like this one from cropping up. Can you list the exact dependency error message you received? |
Description of problem: After updating from FC3 to FC4, yum crashes with "/lib/libssl.so.5: undefined symbol: HMAC_CTX_set_flags" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.1 and higher How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run yum 2. 3. Actual results: There was a problem importing one of the Python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was: /lib/libssl.so.5: undefined symbol: HMAC_CTX_set_flags Please install a package which provides this module, or verify that the module is installed correctly. It's possible that the above module doesn't match the current version of Python, which is: 2.4.1 (#1, May 16 2005, 15:19:29) [GCC 4.0.0 20050512 (Red Hat 4.0.0-5)] Expected results: yum executes. Additional info: After an update from FC3 to FC4, the FC4 and higher versions of yum no longer execute. The troubleshooting methods from Bug# 160373 also do not help. This bug seems to be OpenSSL 0.9.7 related, as downloading the openssl-0.9.8a-xxx.src.rpm (OpenSSL 0.9.8a) from the Development tree (Rawhide) for FC5 and doing a rebuild on FC4 fixes the issue. Note that you have to manually symlink /lib/libssl.so.5 to /lib/libssl-0.9.8a-xxxxx.so as OpenSSL 0.9.7 cannot be removed due to dependency issues.
