From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050328 Fedora/1.7.6-1.2.5 Description of problem: After the upgrade from FC3 to FC4, I have two glibc installed: $ rpm -q glibc glibc-2.3.5-0.fc3.1 glibc-2.3.5-10 The first one comes from FC3. The second from FC4. The whole content of the FC3 rpm is also contained in the FC4 rpm. Should I and could I remove the FC3 rpm without any risk? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glibc-2.3.5-0.fc3.1 glibc-2.3.5-10 How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. fresh install Fedora Core 3 2. apply all available updates (with yum or other) 3. upgrade to Fedore Core 4 Actual Results: Everything runs well, but it looks like I have two glibc rpms installed at once: $ rpm -q glibc glibc-2.3.5-0.fc3.1 glibc-2.3.5-10 Expected Results: I would have expected: $ rpm -q glibc glibc-2.3.5-10 Additional info:
That sounds like glibc's %post failed, can you find some error messages in update.log that would show what's going on?
You're alright, here is the error message from upgrade.log: Upgrading glibc-2.3.5-10.i686. error: %trigger(redhat-lsb-1.3-4.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 255
That suggests a bug in redhat-lsb...
