Description Jonathan Kamens 2003-12-25 17:46:39 UTC 
I recently upgraded a bunch of packages, including upgrading gphoto2
from 2.1.3-2 to 2.1.3-3 and installing libexif-0.5.12-1 when libexif
wasn't previously installed.  RPM decided to install the new gphoto2
before installing libexif, and I got this error during the gphoto2
installation:

/usr/lib/libgphoto2/print-usb-usermap: error while loading shared
libraries: libexif.so.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory

The gphoto2 package appears to correctly indicate that it depends on
libexif.so.9, so shouldn't rpm have installed libexif before gphoto2?

Without (at least) a complete -vv log, it's impossible to tell
anything. Partial ordering is exactly that, partial.

Can you supply a complete -vv log?
Comment 2 Jonathan Kamens 2003-12-25 21:36:25 UTC 
I can't restore my machine to its previous configuration and redo the
upgrade, but I can provide a -vv log of the same packages with
--oldpackage specified.  I'll attach it.

Comment 4 Jeff Johnson 2003-12-26 01:09:02 UTC 
Well, it's a -vv file, thanks for trying.

How about rpm -qa --last, so I can at least see what order
the pkgs were installed?

This should be fixed in newer releases.
