Side note: I tried to add the old bug id to the "see also" field, but could not. The error says the reporter should be able to change this field. Note that with the 'rpm -V' command, you need to give it the package name, not the filename of the package:
[root@foo ~]# rpm -V compat-libtermcap
[root@foo ~]#
Next, you don't need to re-install the package with 'rpm -i' because you just installed it with 'yum install' which is what the error message was telling you:
package compat-libtermcap-2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64 is already installed
Finally, the symlinks are in /lib64, not /usr/lib64:
[root@foo ~]# rpm -ql compat-libtermcap
/etc/termcap
/lib64/libtermcap.so.2
/lib64/libtermcap.so.2.0.8
Please verify that you have the symlinks in /lib64.
I guess trying to be more explicit didn't actually add any clarity. Yum installed compat-libtermcap successfully. It was when I didn't find any symlinks that I tried rpm -V (incorrectly). Here's the result showing a correct invocation of rpm -V, with the same out put as you showed (none). But there aren't any symlinks. /etc/termcap gets installed, though. [root@foo ~]# rpm -V compat-libtermcap [root@foo ~]# find /usr/lib64 -name "libtermcap.so.2*" [root@foo ~]# [root@foo ~]# find /etc/termcap /etc/termcap I checked my rhel6 32bit vm, and have the same problem, so the problem is not confined to x86_64 yumdownloader couldn't find any .src.rpms for compat-libtermcap. Is that normal for RHN repositories? Thanks for the quick response! The files should be in /lib64, not in /usr/lib64. oh. yeah. The links are in /lib64. So that means the problem is with the rpm I'm editing not specifying libtermcap.so.2 correctly in BuildRequires. Please close this with "notabug". |
Description of problem: compat-libtermcap for x86_64 does not install any files or create any links. I have not checked i686. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Just install compat-libtermcap Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install libtermcap 2. find /usr/lib64 3. Actual results: [root@foo tmp]# find /usr/lib64 -name "libterm*" /usr/lib64/libtermcap.so [root@foo tmp]# yum install compat-libtermcap Loaded plugins: rhnplugin Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package compat-libtermcap.x86_64 0:2.0.8-49.el6 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ===================================================================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ===================================================================================================================================================== Installing: compat-libtermcap x86_64 2.0.8-49.el6 rhel-x86_64-server-6 16 k Transaction Summary ===================================================================================================================================================== Install 1 Package(s) Upgrade 0 Package(s) Total download size: 16 k Installed size: 0 Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: compat-libtermcap-2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64.rpm | 16 kB 00:00 Running rpm_check_debug Running Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing : compat-libtermcap-2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64 1/1 Installed: compat-libtermcap.x86_64 0:2.0.8-49.el6 Complete! [root@foo tmp]# find /usr/lib64 -name "libterm*" /usr/lib64/libtermcap.so ------------------- [root@foo tmp]# rpm -V compat-libtermcap-2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64.rpm package compat-libtermcap-2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64.rpm is not installed [root@foo tmp]# rpm -i compat-libtermcap-2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64.rpm package compat-libtermcap-2.0.8-49.el6.x86_64 is already installed That's not right! Expected results: /usr/lib64/libtermcap.so.2 should either be a file or a symlink. Additional info: Same info posted to bug 607251. Sorry if this creates bugspam.
