Why does audit 1.6.5-2 require i386 packages
Last modified: 2008-02-05 07:53:40 EST
Description of problem: I went to update audit and its dependencies(audit-libs etc) from 1.6.2-4 to 1.6.5-2. The older version did not require any i386 stuff but yum listed a bunch or i386 stuff as dependencies for the new version. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):1.6.5-2 How reproducible: yum update audit or using smart try to just update audit 64-bit Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Insists that i386 packages are dependencies. Expected results: Should install without i386 dependencies like prior versions. Additional info:
It doesn't require i386 packages. On my x86_64 Fedora 8 machine: [root@X2 ~]# yum update audit Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package audit.x86_64 0:1.6.5-2.fc8 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: audit-libs = 1.6.5-2.fc8 for package: audit --> Running transaction check ---> Package audit-libs.x86_64 0:1.6.5-2.fc8 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: audit-libs = 1.6.2-4.fc8 for package: audit-libs-python --> Running transaction check ---> Package audit-libs-python.x86_64 0:1.6.5-2.fc8 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Updating: audit x86_64 1.6.5-2.fc8 updates 289 k audit-libs x86_64 1.6.5-2.fc8 updates 64 k Updating for dependencies: audit-libs-python x86_64 1.6.5-2.fc8 updates 73 k Transaction Summary ============================================================================= Install 0 Package(s) Update 3 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s) Total download size: 425 k Is this ok [y/N]: I don't see the problem. Maybe you had i386 audit packages previously installed and it was simply updating them? I conscientiously removed all my i386 packages. They were installed by default.
Hi, I'm closing this bug report since it seems to be working fine on my system. If it were pulling in i386 packages and none were installed, you may want to see if its being pulled in as a dependency for something else being upgraded. This bug report would likely be a yum bug report if something really was wrong since the audit package makes no distinction between 64 & 32 bits in its dependencies. Thanks.
