Bug 809007

There is missing obsolete in rubygem-rdoc. That might be the cause. I am going to build new version of rubygem-rdoc.

rubygem-rdoc-3.12-3.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rubygem-rdoc-3.12-3.fc17

Package rubygem-rdoc-3.12-3.fc17:
* should fix your issue,
* was pushed to the Fedora 17 testing repository,
* should be available at your local mirror within two days.
Update it with:
# su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing rubygem-rdoc-3.12-3.fc17'
as soon as you are able to.
Please go to the following url:

then log in and leave karma (feedback).

rubygem-rdoc-3.12-3.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

This is still not right. F17 has rubygem-rdoc-3.12-3.fc17 which obsoletes:

ruby-rdoc < 1.8.7.357-2

but from F16 I have installed ruby-rdoc-1.8.7-358-1.fc16 so the obsoletes is not taking effect and my upgrade fails.

I notice that F17 updates has rubygem-rdoc-3.9.4-13.fc17, whose obsoletes look a bit better:

ruby-rdoc < 3.9.4
ruby-ri < 3.9.4

but this is an older version (3.9.4) than the one in F17 (3.12) so it is not picked.

This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached 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" (top right of this page) 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:

This was wrongly zapped, it's actually an issue in F17.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. 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 '17'.

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 17'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 17 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  change the

Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 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.
