(In reply to comment #0) > nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.4-19.fc12.i686 > nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.6-1.2.fc11.i586 Analysis: The reason for this very odd situation is that from F-12 onwards we split nss into three stand-alone packages nss, nss-softokn, and nss-util. We did that so we could keep softokn behind at the last FIPS-validated release while updating the rest of nss. In F-11 we still have the "monolithic" nss (with softoken and softokn-freebl, etc. mere subpackages). When updated nss to 3.12.6 on recent fedoras in F-12 nss-softokn stayed behind at 3.12.4 (as we wanted) while in F-11 it got bumped to 3.12.6 along with the rest of nss. Once F-11 reaches end-of-life and all F-n's have the split form and this will no longer be a problem for people upgrading. Its is now a problem. Solution: I'll bump nss-softokn in F-12, F-13, and devel to to 3.12.6. nss-softokn-3.12.6-2.fc12.1,nss-3.12.6-7.fc12 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 12. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/nss-softokn-3.12.6-2.fc12.1,nss-3.12.6-7.fc12 nss-softokn-3.12.6-2.fc12.1, nss-3.12.6-7.fc12 has been pushed to the Fedora 12 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update nss-softokn nss'. You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/nss-softokn-3.12.6-2.fc12.1,nss-3.12.6-7.fc12 (In reply to comment #3) This update could use some karma points so it goes to stable soon. A good test here is to upgrade a system from F-11 to F-12 and then execute su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update nss-softokn' i'm running fedora 12 x86-64. the installed nss-softokn packages are the later version. updates that depend on the earlier version are failing preventing automatic updates. how do i get around this? (In reply to comment #4) I should have said su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update nss-softokn nss' (In reply to comment #5) > version. updates that depend on the earlier version are failing preventing > automatic updates. .... Could you elaborate on this part? I would like to try to reproduce your pronlem.

I would like to try to reproduce your > pronlem. automatic updates worked this morning. the problem seems to have gone away.sorry to have wasted your time No problem. I will push it to then. nss-softokn-3.12.6-2.fc12.1, nss-3.12.6-7.fc12 has been pushed to the Fedora 12 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
