Description of problem:
Installing the latest F10 kernel update candidate 2.6.28-3.fc10 leads to the following error message

  $ rpm -ihv --force kernel-2.6.28-3.fc10.x86_64.rpm 
  Preparing...                ##################################### [100%]

  cp: cannot stat `/lib/kbd/consoletrans/iso01': No such file or directory

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.28-3.fc10.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -ihv --force kernel-2.6.28-3.fc10.x86_64.rpm
  
Actual results:
/lib/kbd/consoletrans/iso01 is accessed but does not exist.

Can you get some more information by using rpm -i -vv --force ?

For various reasons, I have reverted to kernel 2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.x86_64 which now turns out to trigger the same message [as does 2.6.27.10-169.fc10.x86_64 now as well]. It seems like installing kernel 2.6.28-1.fc10.x86_64 has somehow made a persistent change to the system.

Comment 3 Joachim Frieben 2009-02-21 09:53:50 UTC
This appears to have been a transient issue. After reinstalling F10 w/updates as of 2009-02-21, installing kernel-2.6.29-0.33.rc5.fc10.x86_64 does not trigger this error message anymore. kernel-2.6.28.x packages have not even made their way into repo "updates-testing". Thus closing as "RAWHIDE".
