this has been bugging me for months, but no-one seems to have fixed it, so I figure it's worth reporting. After install, there are two grub entries. "Fedora" and "Fedora-base". Both of which are identical.
What type of install is this with? And can you attach 'rpm -q --whatprovides kernel', /root/install.log and /var/log/anaconda.log?
install was pxe & nfs. This is disturbing ... $ rpm -q --whatprovides kernel kernel-2.6.27.3-27.rc1.fc10.x86_64 kernel-2.6.27.3-27.rc1.fc10.x86_64 logs to follow..
Created attachment 321044 [details] anaconda log
Created attachment 321047 [details] install.log
That is interesting and not what I'd expect. Panu -- any thoughts on what would be causing multiple entries in the rpmdb?
From the above install.log it seems to be installed twice, which sorta explains: [pmatilai@localhost ~]$ grep kernel-2 /tmp/install.log Installing kernel-2.6.27.3-27.rc1.fc10.x86_64 Installing kernel-2.6.27.3-27.rc1.fc10.x86_64 It gets added to the transaction twice, but that rpm doesn't filter it out the duplicate is of course an rpm bug. Easily reproduced on command line too, this only happens for "pure" install, not upgrade: [root@localhost x86_64]# rpm -Uvh test-2-1.x86_64.rpm test-2-1.x86_64.rpm warning: package test = 2-1 was already added, skipping test < 2-1 Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:test ########################################### [100%] [root@localhost x86_64]# rpm -e test [root@localhost x86_64]# rpm -ivh test-2-1.x86_64.rpm test-2-1.x86_64.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:test ########################################### [ 50%] 2:test ########################################### [100%] [root@localhost x86_64]# Oops :) Seems to happen on both 4.4.2.x and 4.6.x... will fix.
Fixed in rawhide now (rpm-4.6.0-0.rc1.3) Anaconda adding the same package twice to transaction is kinda wrong anyway, but rpm now handles this corretly (warns and skips).
