Description Peter Robinson 2011-05-14 12:20:47 UTC

The upgrade (using yum in this case) is broken from F-14 on a standard gnome desktop install due to package conflicts with the old gnome-desktop package.

There's a gnome-desktop-2.32.0-8.fc15 which does not conflict with gnome-desktop3; I don't know how your upgrade missed this, but my yum upgrade used it and hit no problem. possibly NOTABUG.

Discussed during 2011-05-16 Fedora QA blocker review meeting [1].  Reserving decision until additional yum update information is available.  Note, that yum updates are not the supported/recommended upgrade procedure.  Therefore, it is unlikely that this issue would block the release.  Day-0 updates to the 'updates' repository may be sufficient to address a 'yum' distro-sync upgrade issue.

Comment 3 Adam Williamson 2011-05-17 21:24:59 UTC

Discussed at the go/no-go meeting of 2011-05-17. Agreed that this is not a blocker; as described it affects only yum upgrades, which are explicitly not supported and not specified in the release criteria. Additionally, no-one claims to be able to reproduce this while several say they have done yum upgrades and _not_ seen this, and no-one has seen a similar issue using any supported upgrade mechanism.

Going to close these as I don't have the full logs. It seems I forced removal with rpm and let yum clean up the problem by pulling in the associated deps.
