Now with yum-utils-1.1.19-1.fc11.noarch: * If I do "debuginfo-install glibc-2.9.90-2.i686", I get: Could not find debuginfo for main pkg: glibc-2.9.90-2.i686 Could not find debuginfo pkg for dependency package glibc-2.9.90-2.i686 (repeated lots of times) * If I do "debuginfo-install glibc-2.9.90-2.x86_64", I get: Installing: glibc-debuginfo x86_64 2.9.90-2 rawhide-debuginfo 22 M "uname -a" reports: Linux free-spin.localdomain 2.6.29-0.28.rc1.fc11.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jan 11 20:52:37 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux This is a 64-bit machine, but doesn't it need to be able to install the 32-bit debuginfo packages in parallel? Fedora doesn't ship multilib. debuginfo, so there's nolthing yum can do. Is the first bug in this BZ still unfixed? The conflict problem is fixed; "debuginfo-install `rpm -qa`" works in current Rawhide. So, if there is a crash in a 32-bit program, will it be undiagnosable due to lack of debugging symbols? I suppose all of the Fedora code is available in 64 bits; the only stuff I have installed 32-bit is Adobe Acrobat and Flash. I also get a ton of warnings from "debuginfo-install `rpm -qa`" for noarch packages; should I just ignore them, or should debuginfo-install handle them more gracefully? Yeh, and in theory you can create a secdon debuginfo repo. pointing to the 32 one ... although probably noone tests how well that works. Instead of warnings what would you like, no warning? Even though you've asked it to do something it can't? You can also do either of: debuginfo-install \* debuginfo-install \*.x86_64 keeping the warnings makes sense to me. At the very least so someone who intentionally does: debuginfo-install yum can understand a little bit why it did nothing. OK, sounds like the best we can do for now, other than documenting that this is normal. I've filed that request under bug 480385. Thanks for your advice! |
I have glibc-debuginfo-2.8-3.i686 and glibc-2.8-3.i686 installed. I ran the command "debuginfo-install `rpm -qa`" so I could be guaranteed of producing useful stack traces in the event of a program crash. This process downloads over 700 packages, and then fails with the below errors. It seems like debuginfo-install should be able to figure out which architecture is needed; isn't that important for debugging? -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/debuginfo-install", line 124, in <module> util = DebugInfoInstall() File "/usr/bin/debuginfo-install", line 42, in __init__ self.main() File "/usr/bin/debuginfo-install", line 82, in main self.doTransaction() File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 408, in doTransaction self.errorSummary(errstring) yum.Errors.YumBaseError: Transaction Check Error: package glibc-debuginfo-2.8-3.i386 is already installed file /usr/lib/debug/lib/ld-2.8.so.debug from install of glibc-debuginfo-2.8-3.i386 conflicts with file from package glibc-debuginfo-2.8-3.i686 This is with yum-utils-1.1.14-4.fc9.noarch
