I'm using kernel 2.2.17-4. I get a segmentation fault from up2date. With GNOME I get a Message-Dialog with python segmentation fault. information. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. up2date -l or up2date -u Actual Results: >up2date -l Retrieving list of all available packages... Removing installed packages from list of updates... 100.0% Removing packages marked to skip from list... 100.0% Getting headers for available packages... 100.0% Removing packages with files marked to skip from list... segmentation fault (core dumped) >
Please verify that your versions of rpm and rpm-python are in sync. Those being out of sync are the only situations where I have seen seg faults like this.
>rpm -q up2date python python-xmlrpc rpm rpm-python up2date-2.1.7-1 python-1.5.2-27 python-xmlrpc-1.2.1-1 rpm-4.0.2-0.34 rpm-python-4.0.2-0.34 I also tried to reinstall (with rpm -i --force) the packages. This did not solve the Problem. I've a recompiled kernel. Perhaps a kernel configuratin Problem?

After browsing thru the other dep copys I found the fix in 34900. For convenience I repeat the fix. Yes, freshing the rpm-python package fixed the up2date error. rpm -Fvh rpm-python-4.0.2-7x.i386.rpm Problem RESOLVED! Thanks! Sebastian
