I forgot ... I should have added that this failure was NOT a total show-stopper. I proceeded to do some partial updates, selecting a single package to start with, then the entire set of TeX pcakages, then the rest. Doing so caused all the updates to complete without problems. I also noted that these repeated runs of up2date did not cause any files to be downloaded, as that had been done successfully already. This should be fixed in the current errataed packages. Are you still seeing this issue? I'm positive this bug has been fixed in the current client, so closing bug. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.6) Gecko/20011120 Description of problem: When trying to run /usr/bin/up2date, and there were some 30 packages selected for update, the download phase went fine but the installation phase failed with console diagnostic as given below. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: Sorry, cannot describe exactly how to reproduce. You would need a RH 7.1 machine that was freshly installed this summer, then slightly updated in August, and then subject to a /usr/bin/up2date session this day (3rd December). Actual Results: In the console window from which I launched /usr/bin/up2date: File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date/gui.py", line 592, in doInstallation .. File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date/up2date.py", line 2518, in InstallPackages error = errors + e + "\n" TypeError: illegal argument type for built-in operation Additional info:
