I should note that the original F11 worked just fine. Can you attach your upgrade log? Created attachment 426703 [details]
Upgrade log
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '13'. 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 13'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 13 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 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.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. |
Created attachment 426630 [details] Checks the group ID in /etc/passwd against the one defined in /etc/group Description of problem: I've upgraded F11/x86_64 to F13/x86_64 using preupgrade-cli in VNC mode. Once I rebooted into the new machine, GDM user list was empty and non of kit processes were active. Logging in using the "custom user" option, produced a dead GNOME session with no sound (pulse kept on crashing) and no panels. Starting console-kit-daemon and polkit by hand did produce a semi working gdm, but once I logged in any gvfs and friends start crashing like crazy. Doing some research, I noticed that the group IDs in /etc/passwd and /etc/group do no match. Using a small script (attached) I detected and fixed the invalid ID's and reinstalled all the affected packages. $ yum reinstall -y $(rpm -qa --queryformat="%{NAME}.%{ARCH}\n" | egrep -e 'gdm|pulse|kit|Kit') The machine now boots and works as advertised. $ sh ./check-id.sh User: games (ID: 12) FAILED (Group: 100 [/etc/passwd] 20 [/etc/group]). User: vcsa (ID: 69) FAILED (Group: 69 [/etc/passwd] 499 [/etc/group]). User: avahi-autoipd (ID: 499) FAILED (Group: 499 [/etc/passwd] 498 [/etc/group]).
