Bug 465572

File conflicts on installation are always bugs in the packages themselves, not in anaconda.

The lang files are provided by the main and the tui sub-package. This is not ideal, but the files are identical (same content and same flags) and are from the same build. Therefore this should not happen at all.

The lang files will be removed from the main package and only the tui sub package will contain the files from now on.

I think there is another problem with the install. Can you please check which packages (system-config-firewall*) will be installed? Do they match in version and release?

New test. Here's what you asked for: The problem seems to be that system-config-firewall and system-config-tui is of different versions:

system-config-firewall-1.2.10-1
system-config-firewall-tui-1.2.11-1

And the error message reads:

Error running your transaction for the following reson(s): file conflicts

Happened for me today.  F10 Beta DVD install media and added the rawhide repo.

Got 1.2.10 for s-c-firewall and 1.2.12 for s-c-firewall-tui.

Installation is impossible.

There seems to be a problem in anaconda or yum:

1) rawhide contains updates for system-config-firewall and system-config-firewall-tui. There is no reasong to update only one of them.

2) The system-config-firewall package has a requirement for system-config-firewall-tui with the same version and release:

system-config-firewall-1.2.10-1.fc10: system-config-firewall-tui = 1.2.10-1.fc10
system-config-firewall-1.2.11-1.fc10: system-config-firewall-tui = 1.2.11-1.fc10
system-config-firewall-1.2.12-1.fc10: system-config-firewall-tui = 1.2.12-1.fc10

Reassigning to anaconda.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

More information and reason for this action is here:

Please have a closer look at comment #3. The installer is trying to install 
system-config-firewall and system-config-firewall-tui in different versions. If you have a look at comment #5 you will see that there is a correctly versioned dependency from system-config-firewall to system-config-firewall-tui. Therefore this is not a system-config-firewall bug.

This happened only in anaconda. yum itself refused to install this package combination for me.

Reassigning to anaconda.

Thomas,

There are 5 packages that anaconda specifically selects to ensure that they are installed on the target system.  They provide tools used during installation.  The 5 packages are:

    authconfig
    chkconfig
    mkinitrd
    rhpl
    system-config-firewall-tui

We select s-c-firewall-tui to get /usr/sbin/lokkit which is used in firewall.py.  In comment #3, the problem is clearly packaging since the two s-c-firewall packages have different version numbers and overlapping files.

In rawhide now, I see that the packages do not have overlapping files and the version numbers are the same.

It was a packaging problem that you have resolved now, it was not an anaconda problem.

David,

yes, there have been overlapping files, but 

1) the overlapping mo-files where identical in the old main and tui- sub-package if they have the same version and release.

2) there is a requirement for system-config-firewall-tui with the same version and release in the system-config-firewall package, because tui contains files, that both packages need in the proper versions.

3) anaconda managed to get system-config-firewall and system-config-firewall-tui with different versions/releases in the transaction. So it misses some checks to get this happen. (See 2))

This is a package selection problem. The duplicate files only showed this.
