I apologize for this inconsistency. According to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Using_the_.25.7B.3Fdist.7D_Tag I should have appended the .1 after the dist tag... I don't know a release number that could be built for fc9, fixing the problem during upgrade with f10 media. We can't use 1.fc9.1, as it's smaller/older than the already-released 1.1.fc9 Therefore I propose to get rid of the bad release, and at least ensure that things will be fixed the next time an "yum update" gets executed. I produced updated versions for both f9 and f10: - nspr-4.7.3-2.fc9.i386 - nspr-4.7.3-2.fc10.i386 rawhide/f11 is already at 4.7.3-3 nspr-4.7.3-2.fc10 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 10. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/nspr-4.7.3-2.fc10 nspr-4.7.3-2.fc10 has been pushed to the Fedora 10 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nspr-devel-4.7.3-1 How reproducible: very Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install F9 2. Upgrade to F10 3. try to upgrade nspr from F9 to F10 packages Actual results: keeps the F9 packages Expected results: updates to F10 packages Additional info: I downloaded these packages manually via yumdownloader # ls -l nspr-* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 125009 2008-12-06 10:03 nspr-4.7.3-1.fc10.i386.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 115693 2008-12-06 10:03 nspr-devel-4.7.3-1.fc10.i386.rpm # rpm -Uvh nspr-* Preparing... ########################################### [100%] package nspr-4.7.3-1.1.fc9.i386 (which is newer than nspr-4.7.3-1.fc10.i386) is already installed package nspr-devel-4.7.3-1.1.fc9.i386 (which is newer than nspr-devel-4.7.3-1.fc10.i386) is already installed Obviously, I can remove the F9 packages via --nodeps and install the F10 packages but I think there is an incremental problem that needs to be fixed somewhere/somehow Also, see Michael Schwendt's comment here... https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2008-December/msg01037.html about how to increase package release correctly when using the %{?dist} macro
