List of installed package (after yum upgrade)
Seemingly the same problem hit me this morning. Yum halted at the beginning of the installation phase of an update - but yum-complete-transaction was unable to cleanup the mess. It wanted to remove half my installation. I had to put the whole thing together with rpm -e --nodeps [duplicate package], rpm -i [new package] interspersed with yum check all's. Quite a mess which required a lot of hand work to cleanup. frank: did you catch (or can you tell from 'yum history' or yum logs) what package caused the yum process to quit (presumably crash)? That's rather worrying. Unfortunately no adam, I had a look at the yum log and it simply shows the last package being installed was ibus something or other...then my yum checks etc when I was cleaning up the mess. I don't think it was a crash....yum just returned to the prompt. Sorry but I was more concerned with cleaning up the mess rather than anything else. The problem is that I am having hardware problems with this machine (I suspect memory despite the fact that repeated memchecks have found nothing)...so I am always worried it;s going to lock up in the middle of an update (such as happened to me about 10 days ago)...that too created a mess I couldn't clean up. But this time it didn't lock up...yum just stopped... well, I mean, if it just flat stops in the middle of a transaction, to me that indicates something somewhere failed catastrophically. it's clearly not the 'intended behaviour'. but if you're having hardware issues that may explain it... This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 20 development cycle. Changing version to '20'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora20 This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. 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. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 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 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. 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. Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 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. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
