This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in a release. I can't reproduce it with any of these files (zlib, perl). When I do it on 5.7 machine repackaged rpm is unsigned, so there is really different md5, but rpm install it anyway. Files on rhn are correct, so it seems to be rpm problem.

Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in a release. This is expected behavior for repackaged packages and not a bug, --rollback should be used to deal with them instead of direct -U or such. Even then, the rpm level repackage+rollback is unsupported on RHEL <= 5 and has been removed entirely in RHEL >= 6. |
Description of problem: Configure system for downgrade by repackaging method Try to downgrade zlib package Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7 zlib-1.2.3-3.x86-64 How reproducible: when downgrading zlib Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add "%_repackage_all_erasures 1" line into /etc/rpm/macros.up2date file. 2. Add "tsflags=repackage" option in /etc/yum.conf file. 3. Update zlib package # yum update zlib 4. Perform rollback for zlib packages from /var/spool/repackage # rpm -Uvh --oldpackage zlib-1.2.3-3.* 5. Repackaging progress starts followed by error cpio:MD5 sum mismatch Actual results: rpm throws error MD5 sum mismatch Expected results: zlib need to be update successfully Additional info:
