Hmmm. It seems to happen with other (all?) packages too. This has been fixed in the latest CVS. I will talk to the maintainers and see when a new version is gonna be released. This occurs on s390 as well. Changing arch to All. [root@rawhide zod_was_here]# rpm -q gnorpm gnorpm-0.96-11 *** Bug 54776 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Same problem on RH7.1/gnorpm 0.96-1. Is there any movement here? I sent a mail to the maintainer asking for a new release. Gnorpm has been deprecated for the next version of RedHat. It will be replaced with a package called redhat-config-packages. When a user selects "upgrade software" in my application, it would fetch the new RPM for him from my web site and then fire off a "gnorpm-auth -qp /tmp/newversion.rpm" to perform the actual update. Now, in RH 8.0, I find that the gnorpm command is gone. But it does not appear to me that the replacement package, redhat-config-packages, has the same ability to graphically install/upgrade a package from a file. There is no manual page for redhat-config-packages (shouldn't *everything* in /usr/bin have a man page?), so maybe the functionality is there, just not documented. Could you please comment on how to achieve the same gnorpm functionality in RH 8.0? Thank you. rickr: use redhat-install-packages |
Description of Problem: Segmentation fault doing the following: 1. Click Operations->Find 2. Choose provide in the drop down for find packages that. 3. Enter sendmail or other package name in the text box and click find. 4. Highlight the result and click Query. 5. You get a blank window called Package Information. 6. If you try to verify the package instead of querying it generates a segmentation fault dialog box. This occurs on the i386 platform for Enigma also.
