From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040312 Description of problem: After replacing the XFree86 packages with the xorg-x11 ones, X would not start when I logged out. It would infintely crash, once I switched runlevels I determined 2 problems: 1. /usr/X11R6/lib was not in /etc/ld.so.conf so it couldn't find the libraries 2. It was unsuccessfully connecting to xfs because it wasn't started. After fixing these 2 problems X started fine, but on each subsequent reboot I would have to manually start xfs for X to start. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-xfs-0.0.6.6-0.0.2004_03_11.6 How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install xorg-x11 packages over XFree86 packages with rpm -Uvh 2. Reboot 3. Actual Results: X doesn't start, I have to ssh to my box and switch runlevels to start xfs first. Expected Results: xfs should be configured to start up Additional info: Got help on IRC from karsten__ # chkconfig --list xfs service xfs supports chkconfig, but is not referenced in any runlevel (run 'chkconfig --add xfs') Running this fixes the problem # /sbin/chkconfig --add xfs
xorg-x11 obsoletes XFree86-xfs, thus causing a deinstallation of XFree86-xfs -> %preun xfs (XFree86-xfs) kicks in. Unfortunately %preun (XFree86-xfs) gets called after %post (xorg-x11-xfs), runs chkconfig --del xfs and you end up with a system where xfs is installed, but disabled.
