Description Michael Schwendt 2007-07-05 14:14:27 UTC

There are bad Perl package "Provides" in mrtg:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-perl-devel-list/2007-July/msg00012.html

> mrtg provides perl(SNMP_util) EQ 0 1.08
> perl-SNMP_Session provides perl(SNMP_util) EQ 0 1.06
>  required by: perl-SNMP_Session - 1.08-3.fc6.noarch
> 
> mrtg provides perl(SNMP_Session) EQ 0 1.08

>  required by: mrtg - 2.15.1-2.fc7.i386

Comment 1 Chris Adams 2007-08-14 18:58:26 UTC

I just ran into this because yum will prefer mrtg as a source for
perl(SNMP_Session) over the real source, perl-SNMP_Session.  This leads to
broken installs of RPMs that use the modules from perl-SNMP_Session.

This needs to be fixed ASAP since it leads to broken programs.

Comment 2 Michael Schwendt 2007-09-19 22:57:13 UTC

Do you need help? This bug is still present in rawhide, too.

Comment 3 Vitezslav Crhonek 2007-09-20 09:25:08 UTC

Sorry for the delay, it's fixed in F-7 and rawhide now.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2007-09-24 18:00:20 UTC

mrtg-2.15.1-3.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 5 Fedora Update System 2007-10-08 15:03:25 UTC

mrtg-2.15.1-3.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 6 Chris Adams 2007-10-12 00:56:32 UTC

It is still claiming to provide a bunch of perl modules that aren't really
installed for the system (they are all in a private MRTG directory).  The
following two are provided (for real) by perl-SNMP_Session:

  perl(SNMPv1_Session)  
  perl(SNMPv2c_Session)  

I _think_ the rest of the provides are probably harmless (because they don't
appear to overlap any real modules).
