Description tom.jenkinson 2010-07-05 12:13:58 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100622 Fedora/3.6.4-1.fc13 Firefox/3.6.4

Valgrind won't install using yum on my Thinkpad T61. I tried yum install valgrind and it doesn't work. Also note that I tried yum install valgrind.i686 and this doesn;t work for the same error message - although it is the 64 bit version that I need.

Perhaps full disk or some I/O error?
Works just fine here...

Hi Jakub,

The disk isn't full:

I decided to try to build the source for valgrind but that doesn't work as the GLIBC version is not supported. Looking through bugzilla it appears we are using a patched version of valgrind in our repo though?

Anyway, do you have further ideas on possible I/O error causes? I have tried this command several times now and consistently get the same error....

Comment 3 Jakub Jelinek 2010-07-05 12:37:29 UTC

Look at dmesg output, audit messages, etc.
You can also strace -f yum (or rpm) to see what error has been given on what syscall.

In any case, this isn't a bug in the rpm itself...

Comment 4 tom.jenkinson 2010-07-05 13:31:21 UTC

Hi Jakub,

This bug can be closed.

I did dmesg which showed nothing so I then tried strace which I needed to be installed. I then tried to install this and got the same error!

I rebooted the laptop and now can yum install them both.

Strange but true...

Thanks for looking into this for me,
Tom
