up2date GUI on a fresh fc3test1 x86_64 install hangs
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:48 EST
Running the up2date GUI on a fresh "workstation" install of FC3 test1 on x86_64 hangs after selecting all packages to install and clicking next. The dialogs both go blank and just sit there until closed. Updating to 4.3.29 doesn't help, even after pointing it at the rawhide directories. When running `up2date -i -u` from the commandline, it craps out on dependency failures (libsoup and libgal2) for evolution. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.3.29 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. do a fresh fc3 test1 "workstation" install on x86_64 2. after logging into gnome, start up2date using the icon in the tray 3. select all packages, click next Actual results: hangs. Expected results: should update all packages successfully. Additional info: upgrading to latest up2date didn't help. manually trying to upgrade libgal2 and libsoup also didn't work. appears to be circular depenency on evolution.
Fedora Core 3 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 FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
Closing per lack of response to previous comment. If this still occurs on FC3 or FC4 and is a security issue, please assign to Fedora Legacy and the appropriate version. The bug could also be filed against RHEL if it is relevant there. up2date has been replaced by pirut and pup in FC5 and FC6, the still fully supported versions of Fedora Core, so this bug will not be fixed unless it is a security issue.
