[rfe] repo priorities and costs
Last modified: 2016-04-19 09:03:29 EDT
Description of problem: Wanted do give dnf/PackageKit-hawkey a try. Beside official Fedora-repos I'm using my own, local repo. This repo has high priority-setting: [repo-maxipunkt] name=Repo-MaxiPunkt for Fedora $releasever - $basearch baseurl=file:///var/cache/repo-maxipunkt/ enabled=1 priority=1 ... ... yum/PackageKit-yum does honor this priority-setting, if "yum-plugin-priorities" is installed - meaning my own packages won't be replaced by other (newer) versions beloning to other repos, when doing a "yum update". But dnf/PackageKit-hawkey doesn't care about "priority=1" and wants to update my packages, when doing an update. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): * dnf-0.4.10-1.fc20.noarch * PackageKit-hawkey-0.8.15-1.fc20.x86_64 Must priority-setting be done in a different way for dnf/hawkey, or is this "just" a feature still to come?
Hey there, thanks for the report. The priorities option is supplied by the yum-plugin-priorities plugin which is not available for DNF yet. Assigning this somewhat lower priority for now, several pieces in the DNF API are missing yet to make an implementation possible.
I depend on this function. Is there no change for more than 5 months?
Hello Eduard, there has been many changes since January, see e.g. [1] [1] https://github.com/akozumpl/dnf/commits/master
Added with 5928785.
Cool, thanks! Would be great if you would backport next release of dnf including this fix to FC20 (official update-repos)...
hawkey-0.4.18-2.fc20, dnf-0.5.4-1.fc20, libsolv-0.6.4-0.git2a5c1c4.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/hawkey-0.4.18-2.fc20,dnf-0.5.4-1.fc20,libsolv-0.6.4-0.git2a5c1c4.fc20
hawkey-0.4.18-2.fc20, dnf-0.5.4-1.fc20, libsolv-0.6.4-0.git2a5c1c4.fc20 has been pushed to the Fedora 20 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
Sorry, this fix doesn't work for me: I've updated my system to new dnf/hawkey-version. Some days later there are new updates are available for my system: # yum update Geladene Plugins: langpacks, priorities, refresh-packagekit repo-maxipunkt | 2.9 kB 00:00:00 72 packages excluded due to repository priority protections Abhängigkeiten werden aufgelöst --> Transaktionsprüfung wird ausgeführt ---> Paket fxload.x86_64 0:2002_04_11-14.fc20 markiert, um aktualisiert zu werden ---> Paket fxload.x86_64 0:2008_10_13-1.fc20 markiert, um eine Aktualisierung zu werden ---> Paket qt.x86_64 1:4.8.6-9.fc20.1 markiert, um aktualisiert zu werden ---> Paket qt.x86_64 1:4.8.6-10.fc20 markiert, um eine Aktualisierung zu werden ---> Paket qt-devel.x86_64 1:4.8.6-9.fc20.1 markiert, um aktualisiert zu werden ---> Paket qt-devel.x86_64 1:4.8.6-10.fc20 markiert, um eine Aktualisierung zu werden ---> Paket qt-mysql.x86_64 1:4.8.6-9.fc20.1 markiert, um aktualisiert zu werden ---> Paket qt-mysql.x86_64 1:4.8.6-10.fc20 markiert, um eine Aktualisierung zu werden ---> Paket qt-x11.x86_64 1:4.8.6-9.fc20.1 markiert, um aktualisiert zu werden ---> Paket qt-x11.x86_64 1:4.8.6-10.fc20 markiert, um eine Aktualisierung zu werden --> Abhängigkeitsauflösung beendet ... ... ... To be able to test new dnf-version, I have canceled these yum-updates. But new dnf-version doesn't find ANY updates. At least it doesn't try to overwrite my personal RPM's with higher priority-setting anymore: # dnf update Repo-MaxiPunkt for Fedora 20 - x86_64 11 MB/s | 110 kB 00:00 Abhängigkeiten sind aufgelöst. Nichts zu tun. To be able to test new hawkey-version, I have uninstalled yum-backend for packagekit: # yum erase PackageKit-yum # pkcon backend-details Name: hawkey Description: Hawkey Author: Richard Hughes <richard@hughsie.com> # pkcon get-updates Aktualisierungen werden abgerufen[=========================] Warten in Warteschlange [=========================] Fertig [=========================] Normal audiofile-1:0.3.6-2.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) A library for accessing various audio file formats Normal audiofile-devel-1:0.3.6-2.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) Development files for Audio File applications Normal fxload-2008_10_13-1.fc20.x86_64 (updates) A helper program to download firmware into FX and FX2 EZ-USB devices Normal gpsd-3.9-4.fc20.x86_64 (updates) Service daemon for mediating access to a GPS Normal gpsd-devel-3.9-4.fc20.x86_64 (updates) Development files for the gpsd library Normal gpsd-libs-3.9-4.fc20.x86_64 (updates) Client libraries in C and Python for talking to a running gpsd or GPS Normal kde-plasma-translatoid-1.30-10.svn01092011.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) Translator Using Google Translator Normal libzen-0.4.29-2.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) Shared library for libmediainfo and medianfo* Normal libzen-devel-0.4.29-2.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) Include files and mandatory libraries for development Normal qmmp-0.7.7-1.fc20.1.x86_64 (updates) Qt-based multimedia player Normal qt-1:4.8.6-10.fc20.x86_64 (updates) Qt toolkit Normal qt-devel-1:4.8.6-10.fc20.x86_64 (updates) Development files for the Qt toolkit Normal qt-mysql-1:4.8.6-10.fc20.x86_64 (updates) MySQL driver for Qt's SQL classes Normal qt-x11-1:4.8.6-10.fc20.x86_64 (updates) Qt GUI-related libraries Normal soxr-0.1.1-2.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) The SoX Resampler library Normal soxr-devel-0.1.1-2.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) Development files for soxr Normal tinyxml2-1.0.11-3.20130805git0323851.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) Simple, small and efficient C++ XML parser Normal tinyxml2-devel-1.0.11-3.20130805git0323851.fc20.x86_64 (fedora) Development files for tinyxml2 New hawkey-version does find the updates, BUT it also wants to overwrite my personal RPM's with higher priority-setting! So beside the other issue (dnf can't find updates available), there still something is wrong with your recent fix.
Hi team It's not working at all. This is currently a blocker for modularity project. Why is it a blocker? I can't use pungi's lookaside (hey if something is in this repo with super high priority ... don't make it part of result (e.g. this is already in another module). Both priority and cost are totally ignored and I can't really say what repo will be the result of query from :-P Lubos
Closing this particular bug, as it fixes one usecase. My usecase (.query()) is tracked in Bug 1328467 Lubos
