Description lasse 2001-01-23 10:28:06 UTC
I tried to update mysql (MySQL) with the up2date tool. with the following
command:

 up2date mysql mysql-devel mysql-server

The result was:

 file /usr/bin/isamchk from install of mysql-3.23.29-1 conflicts with file
from package MySQL-3.23.28-1
file /usr/bin/isamlog from install of mysql-3.23.29-1 conflicts with file
from package MySQL-3.23.28-1
file /usr/bin/my_print_defaults from install of mysql-3.23.29-1 conflicts
with file from package MySQL-3.23.28-1

etc.. for all the packages:


However, the update went through and I've now ended up with:

 rpm -q mysql
  mysql-3.23.22-6
 rpm -q MySQL
  MySQL-3.23.28-1

The server is a RH6.2 uppgraded to RH7.0.

On further inspection it seems that the problem is not related to up2date but
rather on
the RedHat upgrade procedure.

What is the output of "rpm -qi MySQL"?

Comment 3 Nalin Dahyabhai 2001-01-25 01:48:41 UTC
Package names are case-sensitive, and I suspect that the MySQL
packages are not the ones we shipped.  Changing the mysql package's
name to MySQL would break upgrades.
