This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. This bug still exists in the Fedora 12 version of preupgrade. This bug still exists in the Fedora 14 version of preupgrade. This bug still exists in the Fedora 16 version of preupgrade. I can confirm this on Fedora 16 I have added Richard Hughes to the CC as I think he is the maintainer? of preupgrade. I hope this is not inappropriate. Just saw the work around from the "additional info" in Comment 1. Unfortunatelly, this solution does not seems to work anymore on F16. How can I change the "Version" in this bug and reopen the bug?

I successfully upgraded to F17 from F16; there does not seem to be a major problem in using the method mentioned in comment 1. As indicated in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=827169, you have to set https_proxy as well. If your proxy requires authentication, then export http_proxy=http://username:passwd@proxy.url:port/ export https_proxy=https://username:passwd@proxy.url:port/ preupgrade I had to use backslash to escape the special character in the password. For example, use "abc\$", if the password is "abc$". (In reply to comment #9) Thank you for your suggestions aawasthi. As I was in a rush to upgrade, I did a full upgrade before you replied. Thanks again |
