Description of problem: multilib_policy is used when installing packages, but not when installing groups. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-1.0.2-3.fc24.noarch A demonstration: dshea@spectre:~$ cat test-pkg.py #!/usr/bin/python3 import tempfile, atexit, os, shutil import dnf def exitHandler(): shutil.rmtree(tempdir) tempdir = tempfile.mkdtemp() atexit.register(exitHandler) base = dnf.Base() base.conf.multilib_policy = 'all' repo = dnf.repo.Repo('test-repo', os.path.join(tempdir, 'dnf.cache')) repo.baseurl = 'http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/x86_64/os/' base.repos.add(repo) base.fill_sack(load_system_repo=False) base.read_comps() base.install('glibc') base.resolve() for pkg in base.transaction.install_set: if pkg.arch == 'i686': print(pkg.pkgtup) dshea@spectre:~$ python3 test-pkg.py ('glibc', 'i686', '0', '2.21.90', '20.fc24') ('nss-softokn-freebl', 'i686', '0', '3.19.2', '2.fc23') dshea@spectre:~$ cat test-group.py #!/usr/bin/python3 import tempfile, atexit, os, shutil import dnf def exitHandler(): shutil.rmtree(tempdir) tempdir = tempfile.mkdtemp() atexit.register(exitHandler) base = dnf.Base() base.conf.multilib_policy = 'all' repo = dnf.repo.Repo('test-repo', os.path.join(tempdir, 'dnf.cache')) repo.baseurl = 'http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/x86_64/os/' base.repos.add(repo) base.fill_sack(load_system_repo=False) base.read_comps() group = base.comps.group_by_pattern('core') base.group_install(group, {'mandatory', 'default'}) base.resolve() for pkg in base.transaction.install_set: if pkg.arch == 'i686': print(pkg.pkgtup) dshea@spectre:~$ python3 test-group.py dshea@spectre:~$
Thanks for the report. We'll take a look.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle. Changing version to '24'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora24#Rawhide_Rebase
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Please can you provide information what is expected behavior with multilib_policy=all? Cases like dnf install pkgA dnf install pkgA.i686 and what about case where I have pkg.arch and pkg.noarch package? Thanks a lot then I will add the support for groups.
The short answer is, if dnf doesn't already have a definition for the behavior, then neither do I. The configuration option was copied from yum, so the expected behavior is whatever yum did. I'm not sure what it does in the case of `install pkgA.i686`, and I would not expect the pkg.arch vs. pkg.noarch case to ever actually happen. This bug isn't about what happens when you run `dnf install`. install + multilib_policy was working because dnf.base.Base.install includes a check against self.conf.multilib_policy and changes the package selection accordingly. dnf.base.Base.group_install does not. This bug is a request to make all of the install API functions work consistently with respect to multilib_policy.
Sorry for my previous question, but I would like to change code that handle multilib also. I will try my best.
I created a pull request that should implement it (https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/829).
