Description of a problem: There is a package in FC5 ppc updates repository: policycoreutils-1.30.10-2.fc5 It is provided for both ppc and ppc64 arches, i.e. there are: policycoreutils-1.30.10-2.fc5.ppc.rpm policycoreutils-1.30.10-2.fc5.ppc64.rpm The problem is policycoreutils requires libsepol, but there is NO libsemanage for ppc64 arch provided, i.e. there is only: libsemanage-1.6.2-2.fc5.ppc.rpm That makes yum impossible to install full FC5 ppc system into an empty chrooted environment. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): policycoreutils-1.30.10-2.fc5 libsemanage-1.6.2-2.fc5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: (on a ppc64 box) 1. mkdir /tmp/fc5 2. rpm --root /tmp/fc5 --initdb 3. yum --installroot /tmp/fc5 install basesystem Actual results: Error: Missing Dependency: libsemanage.so.1(LIBSEMANAGE_1.0)(64bit) is needed by package policycoreutils Error: Missing Dependency: libsemanage.so.1()(64bit) is needed by package policycoreutils Expected results: Succesfully installed system Additional info: I found the following but while developing OpenVZ for powerpc. I set high severity because this makes FC5 ppc repository non-consistent, and this is a major bug IMO.
Jesse is this a build problem?
No, it's probably a config problem in that libsemanage isn't listed as multilib for FC5. Hrm, it appears that policycoreutils and libsemanage are BOTH not in the FC5 multilib list, so I'm not sure how policycoreutils-1.30.10-2.fc5.ppc64.rpm got leaked into the repo. Just libselinux is listed. In FC6, policycoreutils isn't multilib either, so I think we just need to remove it from the FC5 repo.
Can someone please check the _whole_ repository for such bugs? For example, I see the following in the ppc updates repo: procps-3.2.6-3.4.ppc64.rpm procps-3.2.6-3.5.ppc.rpm Looks like the repo is in bad state :(
I cleaned up[0] the ppc64 mess in the updates repositories, and policycoreutils-1.30.10-2.fc5.ppc64.rpm is now gone. [0]: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2006-October/msg00241.html
