Good eye, Steve: I found the same problem late last night. I can't even raise Firefox or shut the system down properly. As of this morning, my instance has 2 package update managers (the regular package updater(henceforth called Update1) and the new "Update System" pkg mgr(Update2). The Update(1) calls for xulrunner 1.9-0.38cvs20080310.fc9.... to replace xulrunner 1.9Beta2.12nightly20080121.fc9.... and if you allow Update1 to apply it, the mgr appears to make the changes. However, with this AM's pkg updates, I rcvd Update(2), which also tells me that I need to update xulrunner. Update(2) calls for The need to have >= 1.9-0.40.cvs20080312.fc9.... in order for the update to work We've: 1) A xulrunner package gap 2) 2 GUI Package Updaters (at least in my case - new version, perhaps?) that are showing different needs for the same pkg (xulrunner in our case) (In reply to comment #0) > Fedora 9 alpha. Firefox won't start (reported). > Package Updater keeps presenting "xulrunner" package. Downloads and installs > without any errors (that I know of). And the updater wants to install it again, > and so on. Maybe 5 iterations now. > > Is the update package brain-dead? or is the package update system having a stroke? |
