Description Shailesh Narvekar 2008-05-16 10:36:08 UTC 
Description of problem:
preupgrade successfully downloads all the required packages, but on rebooting
tries to connect to the internet with a message 'Retrying download of packages'.
However this step too fails(I am not sure if this was a problem with my internet
settings or just a genuine problem), but the bug here is there should be no need
to connect to the internet.

It reports that the libsoup22-2.2.105-2.fc9.i386.rpm package is corrupted or
missing. I downloaded this package manually and placed in yum
cache(/var/cache/yum/anaconda-upgrade/packages) and it worked fine.

So I guess the bug is with preupgrades figuring out which packages should be
downloaded.

Am assigning a severity of low as workaround exists, but was potentially a show
stopper for me.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
preupgrade-0.9.3-3

How reproducible:
Could do the installation only once.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Anaconda tries to connect to the internet to download packages, when this should
already have been done in the first step. Even then, it fails to download the
package.

Expected results:
Installation should carry on without connecting to internet to download further
packages.

Comment 1 Will Woods 2008-05-16 14:49:27 UTC 
The problem is that anaconda and preupgrade differ slightly in how they
determine the packages to install. I'm working on fixing preupgrade to match
anaconda's behavior.
Comment 2 Will Woods 2008-09-29 18:05:47 UTC 
With preupgrade-0.9.8 and anaconda-11.4.1.40 (F10 Beta), preupgrade should be downloading the correct package set. 

If preupgrade somehow *still* misses a package, anaconda should complete the upgrade anyway.
