Can you strace it to see what it's trying to do?

Comment 2 The Source 2006-09-12 14:20:55 UTC

I'll attach strace report a little later.
First tell me ehat does this mean:
bind-config - 30:9.3.2-20.FC5.i386 obsoletes caching-nameserver -
30:9.3.2-33.fc5.i386

It is package detals for bind packages appeared in update immediatly after I
updated bind before that. (I have updated bibd and it is still in update list?)
I can not apply this update:
Missing Dependency: bind = 30:9.3.2-20.FC5 is needed by package bind-config

Comment 3 The Source 2006-09-15 06:21:27 UTC

Can't strace problem. When pup is launched with strace bug never happen. And pup
is not only application that stops bugging when launched with strace. I don't know  
exactly what strace do but it definetly affects application somehow.

Comment 4 The Source 2006-09-17 09:06:51 UTC

Buggy bind update has returned. Is there any way to stop this?

Comment 5 Jeremy Katz 2006-09-18 16:50:45 UTC

Luke -- can you see what's up with that update?

Comment 6 Luke Macken 2006-09-30 05:52:25 UTC

It looks like the bind-config subpackage has been obsoleted by the
caching-nameserver for a while.  repoclosure doesn't mention any issues with it,
are you still able to reproduce this?

Comment 7 The Source 2006-09-30 08:52:55 UTC

No, buggy update vanished 2 weeks ago.
