From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2 i686; en-US; 0.7) Gecko/20010203 When selecting to upgrade Xconfigurator to version 4.9.19 release 1, up2date crashes completely with an error message: "There was a fatal RPM error. The message was: The package kudzu-0.97.6-1 conflicts with: mouseconfig" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run up2date on a 7.1 Beta 2 system with kudzu-0.97.6-1 installed 2.Select Xconfigurator 4.9.19-1 to be installed 3.Click Next. Actual Results: Error message shows up, and up2date crashes completely. Expected Results: Conflict should have been reported without up2date crashing.
was there any other error message other than the report that there was a conflict in the package set? If it existed after this, then that is the currently expected behaviour. If there was a traceback or other error messages, then this is unexpected. Better handling of conflicts is going to be worked on for the next version. This particular conflict seems to be an error in the package set that is available on the beta server that probable needs to get resolved.
No other error message was reported than the conflict. When I pressed Ok in the message dialog box, the up2date-application was terminated. A more reasonable behavior would have been to continue with other packages selected and just skip the one that had a conflict. It also took a while to pin-point which selected package to upgrade that had the conflict. This was never reported, only the one already installed package was reported.
