Description of problem: Not sure how we are avoiding this on the main x86/ppc koji builder but on my ia64 koji builder after building elfutils-0.133-2 nothing builds (note, this is not the same issue as the -1 package that was missing libasm, already cleaned that one up). It appears the elfutils-libelf-devel package conflicts with itself. From the spec file: %package libelf-devel ...snip... Conflicts: libelf-devel ...snip... Obsoletes: libelf-devel <= 0.8.2-2 and, when koji tries to do a yum install of the packages, or if I try a yum update on a test system: Error: elfutils-libelf-devel conflicts with libelf-devel Since we alrady have the obsoletes line in the specfile is the conflicts line needed? Or do I just have something messed up on my ia64 builds? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
That is odd. The main koji builders successfully built things with elfutils-0.133-2 in the repo. I did a test install (using rpm, not yum) and had no errors. It seems odd that there would be something specific to ia64 about this. I think it's fine to remove the Conflicts: line and will do it in the next build. But I'm not hurrying to do another build since the mainstream arch set seems to be fine with 0.133-2.
Roland, FYI, I confirmed that removing the conflicts line does resolve my issues. Still seems a mystery that this is just a problem on ia64 however. Either way, can we make the change so that next time elfutils is built we get this fix? For now I have a special version in the ia64 koji which will allow us to make progress until then. thanks, - Doug

This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
