Description Chris Grau 2008-05-13 17:11:15 UTC
Description of problem:

The CUPS version/release in F9 appears to be lower than that in F8.  This
prevents a Yum upgrade of the system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

In F8: 1:1.3.7-2.fc8
In F9: 1:1.3.7-1.fc9

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update fedora-release-*.noarch.rpm
2. Other steps from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/YumUpgradeFaq
3. yum upgrade
  
Actual results:

Error: Missing Dependency: libldap-2.3.so.0 is needed by package cups

Additional info:

Removing cups should get the upgrade to work.  However, this also removes
several other packages.

Same problem with x86_64 architecture.

Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2008-05-14 08:09:28 UTC
Or you could undo the security fix that had to be made (by downgrading to
cups-1.3.7-1.fc8 or the F-8 shipped cups version), which was the reason for the
F-8 release number bump.

This sort of thing is always going to happen sooner or later; it's unfortunate
that a security issue caused this to happen sooner in this case.
