My yum.log

Hi, first of all,

Description of problem:
I'm running an up-to-date rawhide. After updating and rebooting a few days ago my internet access broke. NetworkManager was still showing a successful connection, and I was still able to ping stuff(like google.com) and I could reach the configuration page of my router, but I couldn't get http or yum to work. They didn't show errors, but rather just timed out.

Now I tried re-installing Beta 1, to figure out which package was causing this, and so I updated only stuff of which I thought wasn't that important, rebooted, and bang! - same problem. I've added my yum.log, one of the packages in that list must be what is causing it, I'm suspecting iptables.


Additional info:

Please note that I have both SELinux and the Fedora firewall turned off, due to misbehavior in the past(plus it really slows down Ktorrent, and I have a hardware-firewall). If you need any logs please let me know, seeing how I have to downgrade everytime after I update rawhide to trigger this bug.

Please attach the output of "iptables-save" and "ip6tables-save".

Comment 2 Fabian Korak 2009-04-17 20:20:34 UTC
Okay, it wasn't iptables, I updated iptables and its dependencies, and Internet is still working - seems like I have to go through that yum.log one by one *sigh*

I'll give feedback when I'm done with that. Any tips on which package could be causing this?

Comment 3 Fabian Korak 2009-04-28 14:33:25 UTC
Okay, after checking all the packages in that log*sigh*, these packages are what causing the bug:

glibc
glibc-common
glibc-headers
glibc-devel
nss-softokn-freebl

Sadly, these are dependencies for installing wine, so I either have no Internet or no Wine.

You could check if bug 492700 is related to that issue, if Wine is involved.

I have my doubts, I didn't have Wine installed when I made that first yum.log. It's just an additional comment why I can't simply never update Glibc and live happily till FC12 Rawhide.

Comment 6 Fabian Korak 2009-05-25 11:54:09 UTC
Fixed in rc1. Probably because nss-softokn-freebl no longer is a dependency.
