This is yum depsolving, not rpm issue. What version of yum is this? please? I'm seeing similar perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8) issues trying to update my mythdora install (which is an fc8 base to an fc10 base update). I've updated to: yum-3.2.20-5.fc10.noarch rpm-4.6.0-0.rc1.8.i386 successfully. Created attachment 330333 [details]
output of 'yum update perl'
Bill, your problem is not a yum bug ... it's just saying it can't solve the deps. ... this is "normal". The bug that started this is that yum missed the fact the depsolving didn't work, but rpm caught it. However given this bit: libdb_cxx-4.6.so is needed by (installed) klibido-0.2.5-10.fc9.i386 libdb_cxx-4.6.so is needed by (installed) klibido-0.2.5-8.fc8.i386 ...it looks like an interupted transaction is the root of the problem, and there are multiple versions of some packages installed. package-cleanup --dupes package-cleanup --problems ...will probably fix everything, also 3.2.22 should ship with some work arounds to help Thanks, I did manage to get through this one over the weekend by deleting a bunch of packages, upgrading, and re-installing those packages. However, there were several perl packages that, on f10, required :MODULE_COMPAT_5.10.0 and the 'same' packages on f8 required :MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8, and even when packing perl and perl-\* into the same transaction, yum (or rpm?) bailed, complaining about depsolving because 5.8.8 was going away. It was by manually erasing the packages for which it was complaining about the 5.8 dependency that I was able to get the yum upgrade to progress. I didn't verify all of them, but I did at least check that there were packages with the same package base name in the f10 and f8 repos. perl-Device-SerialPort was one, IIRC. |
