Description Kamil Dudka 2018-04-11 13:10:36 UTC
The following construction in a spec file removes 32bit build of an updated 64bit package while using 'dnf install' or 'yum-deprecated update':

    Obsoletes: %{name} < %{version}-%{release}

... but surprisingly it does not work with 'dnf update' and friends.  Also the output of 'dnf install' is misleading because it does not inform the user that the 32bit build of the package is going to be removed.  This is a regression compared to yum-deprecated.

Any news on this?  People are hitting this bug while updating to Fedora 28.

I am seeing another maybe related issue with nss-pem when trying to upgrade to f28:

any workarounds known to this issue?

Comment 4 Jos de Kloe 2018-05-03 07:55:34 UTC
additional info:
nss-pem-1.0.3-6.fc27.x86_64 and nss-pem-1.0.3-6.fc27.i686 are both installed on my system.

Comment 5 Jos de Kloe 2018-05-03 08:03:13 UTC
Another discussion of the same problem seems to be in this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1553646

The workaround presented there works for me, i.e. upgrade to th f28 version of nss-pem before starting the upgrade itself.

Yes, this workaround is known to work reliably.  Sorry for the inconveniences!

Comment 7 Vincent Poinot 2018-05-12 07:48:55 UTC
Does it mean that there will be no fix for this bug and that we have to resort to the workaround in order to upgrade to F28?
(Just asking because I see this bug is not even assigned at the time of writing, although it is probably blocking many people from smoothly upgrading).

Comment 8 John Freed 2018-05-15 06:30:03 UTC
At the very list, this bug (and workaround) should urgently be referenced here:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F28_bugs#Upgrade_issues

This bug blocks upgrades for anyone who has installed Wine.

> This bug blocks upgrades for anyone who has installed Wine.

I tested it and it works fine with --allowerasing, wine is kept and is usable in the upgraded system.

Comment 10 Antonin 2018-05-23 07:59:31 UTC
Upgrade of my system to F28 is still blocked. Will it be fixed?

Comment 11 Kamil Dudka 2018-05-23 08:47:15 UTC

Please run the following command to unblock the upgrade of your system:

# dnf install nss-pem-1.0.3-9.fc28

But I think it will change status of the nss-pem package from "installed as dependency" to "user installed". If possible I would avoid it.

You can run # dnf mark remove nss-pem to mark it as dependency again.

Or just 'dnf remove nss-pem' after successful upgrade as nss-pem will likely not be a dependency of anything any more.

I didn't know about it. I will try it. Thanks.

that's not entirely the case on my side ...

Sorry, I forgot about abrt.  This is currently being fixed in abrt upstream:

Comment 19 Mike Kwong 2018-05-26 19:25:52 UTC
dnf install nss-pem-1.0.3-9.fc28 didn't work for me
ended up an error that says
No match for argument nss-pem-1.0.3-9.fc28

Also, having to rely on a workaround for when a widely used component (Wine) is installed seems like a really bad user experience.

Comment 20 Mike Kwong 2018-05-26 19:29:24 UTC
Looks like nss-pem-0:1.0.3-9.fc28.x86_64 is in the repository. Is this what I should try?
dnf install nss-pem-0:1.0.3-9.fc28.x86_64

Comment 21 Mike Kwong 2018-05-26 19:40:46 UTC
My bad, looks like I need
dnf install nss-pem-1.0.3-9.fc28 --releasever=28

Comment 22 Geoff Goas 2018-06-28 18:07:02 UTC
I had this issue updating F27 to F28.

The workaround in comment 21 successfully got me past it.

Comment 23 Scott Schmit 2018-08-26 21:57:01 UTC
This workaround wasn't quite enough for me.

I hit a case where "dnf system-upgrade download" downloaded what it thought was a complete set of packages but then the upgrade after "dnf system-upgrade reboot" failed due to packages that it thought needed to be downloaded to satisfy dependendencies -- all these packages were i686 packages but there were (in the end) 0 i686 packages installed.

Detailed story of what I did/tried:

I started with a completely up-to-date F27 system and tried to do a system-upgrade to F28.

Initially, my situation appeared to match that of bug 1553646 (I got the inferior package error and had steam installed).  My (attempted) fix was to uninstall the package:

dnf erase nss-pem.i686

This uninstalled steam, but I figured I could reinstall it after the upgrade.

The dnf system-update was successful, but the post-reboot upgrade failed:

My first reaction was that the downloaded files must've been corrupted somehow, so I cleaned & tried again, but got the same result.
Then I looked at the file paths cited, only to find that the files were entirely missing.

So I tried again without cleaning first, but no additional files were downloaded.  The resulting reboot also failed for the same reason.

So then I tried uninstalling *all* i686 packages, cleaning, and trying again.  Again the system-update download was successful, but on reboot, I got this instead:

[Note: these are the only i686 packages listed in the dnf report and I'd already done a "rpm -qa --qf '%{NAME}.%{ARCH}\n'|grep '\.i686$'" to make sure all the i686 packages were uninstalled before I rebooted]

systemd[1]: dnf-system-upgrade.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
systemd[1]: Failed to start System Upgrade using DNF.

So this made my situation worse, not better.  (Incidentally, looking at prior boots, the missing packages were listed under "installed for dependencies" too)

I'm at a loss as to why "dnf system-upgrade download" thought the transaction was complete, but the dnf system-upgrade service after "dnf system-upgrade reboot" believed more packages needed to be installed -- especially i686 packages when there weren't any i686 packages installed.

My fix, inspired by the bug report at bug 1553646 was the following (all 3 were needed -- the first 2 alone also failed):
# dnf install steam
# dnf install nss-pem-1.0.3-9.fc28.i686 --releasever=28
# dnf upgrade python3-3.6.5-1.fc28 python3-libs gdbm gdbm-libs readline --releasever=28

after this, the system-upgrade download & system-upgrade reboot was finally successful.  Fortunately, these installs/upgrades didn't break my F27 install before I could get the rest of the system upgraded.

Encountering this, is there a resolution in the works?

Comment 26 Ben Cotton 2019-05-02 19:43:45 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life.
On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases
that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 29 Jaroslav Mracek 2019-09-06 16:00:01 UTC
The issue is reproducible. I create an issue on libsolv https://github.com/openSUSE/libsolv/issues/350, probably they will have a solution.

At least dnf suggest to use allowerasing option to resolve the issue.

Comment 33 Ben Cotton 2021-11-30 16:13:37 UTC
Fedora 33 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2021-11-30. Fedora 33 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
