From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: Installed on my server, I have an RPM of freeradius-1.0.0-pre2 that I created myself. When I build the RPM of freeradius-1.0.0-pre3, it picks up the freeradius-1.0.0-pre2 libeap libraries installed on my system rather than the free-radius-1.0.0-pre3 libeap libraries that are part of the RPM that I am building. As a result, the newly built RPM will not install, because it requires on libeap-1.0.0-pre2.so. From my experience building my own RPM, I found the problem was caused by the freeradius-0.9.0-libdir.patch included with the RPM. I found that when I removed the patch, the problem went away and nothing else seemed to go wrong. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): freeradius-1.0.0-0.pre3.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Build and install freeradius-1.0.0-pre2. 2. Build the freeradius-1.0.0-pre3 RPM. 3. Attempt to upgrade to the freeradius-1.0.0-pre3 RPM. Actual Results: freeradius-1.0.0-pre3 RPM fails to install because it requires libeap-1.0.0-pre2.so. Expected Results: freeradius-1.0.0-pre3 RPM to install. Additional info: The problem can be worked around by uninstalling the old version of freeradius before building the new version.
Fixed in rawhide in rpm freeradius-1.0.0-0.pre3.2 or newer.
