Description Bill McGonigle 2006-11-13 16:41:43 UTC
yum update from fc5 to fc6 fails with:

  Error: Missing Dependency: libgnomecanvaspixbuf.so.1 is needed by package gtkhtml

which is provided by gdk-pixbuf-gnome. 

  #rpm -e gdk-pixbuf-gnome
  error: Failed dependencies:
          libgnomecanvaspixbuf.so.1 is needed by (installed) gtkhtml-1.1.9-12.i386
          libgnomecanvaspixbuf.so.1 is needed by (installed) gnucash-1.8.12-3.i386
  #rpm -e gdk-pixbuf-gnome gtkhtml gnucash

and then the update can proceed.

I see the gdk* packages aren't in FC6 - it would be swell if the obsoletes were
handled by yum.

I wasn't sure on the component/summary - ultimately I needed to remove GNUCash
but it seems likely that something else could depend on gdk-pixbuf-gnome;
correct as appropriate.

If something else depends on this obsolete library, it needs to be ported to
more modern libraries that are supported in FC6+

Not much we can do here. Gnucash has finally been ported to gtk2, though, so
this particular problem won't happen anymore.
