Description Kevin Kofler 2008-11-01 13:16:07 UTC
Description of problem:
The Epoch-Version-Release (EVR) of ghc goes backwards from F8 updates to F9 updates, breaking the upgrade path.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ghc-6.8.2-8.fc8                           dist-f8-updates       bos
ghc-6.8.2-2.fc9                           dist-f9               bos
(from koji latest-pkg - the dist-f9 build gets picked up because there's no build in dist-f9-updates)

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade from F8 with updates to F9 with updates.
  
Actual results:
ghc (and ghc682*) from F8 still there (as shown by yum list extras and the equivalent Synaptic feature).

Expected results:
ghc upgraded to F9 version.

Additional info:
The EVR in F9 updates MUST be higher than the EVR in F8 updates. Please push an F9 update with a higher EVR as soon as possible.

Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2008-11-03 00:28:00 UTC
I am going to push ghc-6.8.3 to f9-updates which will fix this (this happened since ghc682 doesn't build with gcc43).

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2008-11-03 07:28:49 UTC
Hopefully ghc-6.8.3-10.fc9 building now in koji will fix this.

Actually it is not gcc43 since ghc-6.8.2 doesn't want to build with compat-gcc-34 either.
