debug output
Can you try this patch: http://people.redhat.com/jantill/yum/patches/yum-sec-installed.patch Also, if that doesn't work ... can you add the output for the "yum -d 5 update xine-libs" case. Created attachment 301830 [details]
debug output with patch (specifying package name)
Well, sort of. With 'yum --security update xine-lib' it works.
However, if I don't specify a package name it fails. The new output says that
its updating 3 of 4 packages (the old one said 1 of 2), but it still doesn't
pull in the dep.
This debug is specifying the package name; the following one will be without
any package.

Without the package name
Both those attachments were with the patch manually applied. Ok, I'm pretty sure I've fixed this. Here's an updated security plugin: http://people.redhat.com/jantill/yum/plugins/security.py ...just copy over the old one, I've only tested with 3.2.14 ... but it should work :). That works, thanks. It does still say: Needed 3 of 4 packages, for security though. Ok, thanks. I'll leave this BZ open at least until the fix is in rawhide. The message is intentional ... and is saying it removed 1 package from a normal "yum update" (i.e. it needed 3 of the 4 available packages, due to security). But there are only 2 available packages, only one of which is a security issue... Without the patch it said 1 of 2; it should say either 1/2 or 2/2 (making sure not to overcount if the extra package wasn't an update but was an extra prereq) Right, I've also changed it upstream to say "transactional packages" which is kind of what it is counting. The extra numbers are because it's counting the old xine-lib packages you have installed (which are being removed as part of the transaction). This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fixed for F10 (and was earlier pushed to F8 as an update, IIRC) |
