This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '16'. 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 16'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 16 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, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. 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 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.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. |
While trying to build a live image from the current slightly broken f16 updates-testing I explicitly specified a previous (and available) version of evolution-data-server, essentially: evolution-data-server-3.1.5-2.fc16 gnome-shell-3.1.4-2.gite7b9933.fc16 gnome-panel gnome-shell-3.1.4-2.gite7b9933.fc16 requires libcamel-1.2.so.28 which evolution-data-server-3.1.5-2.fc16 provides. (It turns out that the latest gnome-panel has conflicting requirements - the issue is that I don't get any indication of that.) The resolution of that package list goes like this: Checking deps for evolution-data-server.i686 0:3.1.5-2.fc16 - u ... looking for ('evolution-data-server', 'GE', ('0', '1.9.1', None)) as a requirement of gnome-panel.i686 0:3.1.5-5.fc16 - u ...

Error creating Live CD : Failed to build transaction : gnome-shell-3.1.4-2.gite7b9933.fc16.i686 requires libcamel-1.2.so.28 That message is wrong/confusing. I explicitly specified evolution-data-server-3.1.5-2.fc16 which do provide libcamel-1.2.so.28. Instead I would expect a helpful error message with evolution-data-server collision failure. It shouldn't consider 3.1.5-5 as an update of 3.1.5-2 when I explicitly specified 3.1.5-2. livecd-tools-16.4-1.fc16.i686 yum-3.4.3-4.fc16.noarch rpm-4.9.1.1-2.fc16.i686
