Description Philip Spencer 2007-11-15 17:33:43 UTC
The recent release of elfutils 0.131-1 for x86_64 includes an i386 version of
elfutils-libelf-devel. This is not installable because it requires
elfutils-libelf-devel-static.i386, and this package is not provided.

Either elfutils-libelf-devel.i386 needs to be removed from the x86_64
distribution, or else elfutils-libelf-devel-static.i386 (and anything it
requires) needs to be added.

Comment 1 Philip Spencer 2007-11-15 17:37:04 UTC
[Sorry, forgot to add that elfutils-devel is in the same situation as
elfutils-libelf-devel, requiring elfutils-devel-static.i386]

Comment 2 Roland McGrath 2007-11-15 22:32:38 UTC
This seems to be a bug in the updates system or something like that.

The rpms were all built, but some were omitted from the push for biarch.  The
-static.x86_64 rpms are present in the x86_64 dir, and the -static.i386 rpms are
present in the i386 dir, but -static.i386 are missing from x86_64, which does
have -devel.i386.

Note that in F7 and later, elfutils-devel no longer requires
elfutils-devel-static and elfutils-libelf-devel no longer requires
elfutils-libelf-devel-static.

Comment 3 Luke Macken 2007-11-15 23:43:59 UTC
I added elfutils-devel-static and elfutils-libelf-devel-static to the FC-6
biarch list and requested a repush for elfutils-0.131-1.fc6.

This bug is open for a Fedora version that is no longer maintained and
will not be fixed by Fedora. Therefore we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
