From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: When I select fam and fam-devel to be updated with the UP2DATE GUI application, it will lock up in the dependency testing phase. I found I can use the command line UP2DATE to update the 2 packages which in turn adds a third package, libselinux-devel . It looks like the GUI cannot add the dependency. This has happened on 2 different machines. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run the UP2DATE GUI with fam and fam-devel needing updating and no libselinux-devel package on the system. 2.The GUI locks up. 3.Then run "up2date -i fam fam-devel" which will work. Additional info:
Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.
NEEDINFO_ENG has been deprecated in favor of NEEDINFO or ASSIGNED. Changing status to ASSIGNED for ENG review.
up2date is no longer shipped with Fedora Core; it's functionality has been replaced by pup, found in the pirut package. The only fixes likely to be made to up2date in RedHat Linux and earlier Fedora Core versions are security fixes by Fedora Legacy. This does not seem to be a security bug, so I'm closing it. If the problem is appropriate to RHEL and occurs to a user there, it can be filed as such.
