The egcs 1.1.2 compatibility libstdc++ was removed on purpose, we don't provide eternal compatibility with everything. egcs 1.1.2 was released in March 1999 and last included in RHL 6.2. That's a lot of years AOL had time to update their stuff to something newer. OK, never mind. I thought it was a compatibility layer for gcc 2.96, not egcs 1.1.2. |
Description of problem: It's impossible to install compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138 without breaking aim. Here is what happens: [root@lembas zaitcev]# rpm -U compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 is needed by (installed) aim-1.5.286-1.i386 [root@lembas zaitcev]# rpm2cpio < compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138.i386.rpm | cpio -it | more 508 blocks ./usr/lib/libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so ./usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 [root@lembas zaitcev]# ldd /usr/bin/aim linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000) libgtk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0 (0x00101000) libgdk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgdk-1.2.so.0 (0x00c7a000) libgmodule-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0 (0x00b27000) libglib-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0 (0x00afb000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x009cf000) libXi.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x00d68000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x00b9b000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x009f7000) libXprt.so.1 => /usr/lib/libXprt.so.1 (0xb7f54000) libXpcs.so.1 => /usr/lib/libXpcs.so.1 (0xb7f4e000) libXptl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libXptl.so.1 (0xb7f4a000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00bad000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x009a6000) libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 (0xb7f08000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00867000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x0084a000) libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0x009f2000) libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXdmcp.so.6 (0x009ea000) [root@lembas zaitcev]# rpm -q compat-libstdc++-296 compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-136 [root@lembas zaitcev]# Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install official AOL Instant Messenger client from AIM.com 2. Run "yum update" on Rawhide Yum breaks when checking dependencies (thanks! could be worse!) Actual results: Updating to current Rawhide with yum is impossible, which is good. If it were possible, aim would break. Expected results: Update proceeding and aim working. Additional info: I dunno, it may be a bug in AIM RPM to select a library by name, or perhaps a bug in the way aim excutable was linked. But this thing worked since RHL-9 (IIRC). Isn't the idea of compat packages to preserve compatibility? I think something is broken here.
