Description Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2002-01-30 11:18:01 UTC
Description of Problem:
up2date does not display dependency problems correctly

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
up2date-2.7.11-7.x.2

How Reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
try to update rpm from Skunkworks by issuing 'up2date rpm'

Actual Results:
[root@morn rhn-packages]# up2date rpm

Retrieving list of all available packages...
[...]
There was a package dependency problem.  The message was:
A package providing librpmdb-4.0.3.so could not be found.
A package providing librpm-4.0.3.so could not be found.
A package providing librpmio-4.0.3.so could not be found.
A package providing librpmbuild-4.0.3.so could not be found.

Expected Results:
librpm-4.0.3.so   is needed by gnorpm-0.96-11
librpm-4.0.3.so   is needed by kdeadmin-2.2.2-2
librpmbuild-4.0.3.so   is needed by kdeadmin-2.2.2-2
librpmdb-4.0.3.so   is needed by gnorpm-0.96-11
librpmdb-4.0.3.so   is needed by kdeadmin-2.2.2-2
librpmio-4.0.3.so   is needed by gnorpm-0.96-11
librpmio-4.0.3.so   is needed by kdeadmin-2.2.2-2

or even better something along the lines of:
[start]
you are attempting to install rpm-4.0.4-0.19, but the following packages require
rpm-4.0.3:
gnorpm-0.96-11
kdeadmin-2.2.2-2
[end]

Additional Information:
I set this to 'Red hat Beta' if you deem this too paranoid, remove the flag.

rawhide issue. 

you get both pieces ;->

Should be fixed in an upcoming rawhide snapshot, eventually.

Comment 2 Adrian Likins 2002-03-06 23:27:49 UTC
btw, next version of the client will be more explicit and accurate
in the way it describes these kinds of dependency errors.

Comment 3 Matt Jamison 2003-05-22 12:45:42 UTC
works properly

closing bug.
