From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020724 Description of problem: Made the mistake to upgrade "up2date-*", "rhnlib", and "rpm" before getting the first several hundred updates for Limbo beta2. up2date 2.9.33 fails to run: # up2date creating readOnlyTransaction Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 18, in ? from up2date_client import rpcServer File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpcServer.py", line 7, in ? import up2dateAuth File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2dateAuth.py", line 4, in ? import rpmSource File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpmSource.py", line 11, in ? import up2dateUtils File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2dateUtils.py", line 15, in ? import rpmUtils File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpmUtils.py", line 221, in ? rpm_version = getRpmVersion() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpmUtils.py", line 210, in getRpmVersion ts = transaction.initReadOnlyTransaction() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/transaction.py", line 25, in initReadOnlyTransaction read_ts.setVerifySigFlags(8) AttributeError: setVerifySigFlags How reproducible: Always Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # rpm -qa | egrep '^(rpm)|(up2date)|(rhn)' up2date-2.9.33-7.x.9 rpm404-python-4.0.4-8x.26 rpm-build-4.1-0.57 rpm-4.1-0.69 rpmdb-redhat-7.3.93-0.20020726 rhnlib-0.8-13 up2date-gnome-2.9.33-7.x.9 rpm-python-4.1-0.57
Dependencies are wrong. up2date 2.9.33-7.x.9 must require: rpm-python >= 4.1-0.69
With rpm-python upgraded, I'm getting further. But after "Testing dependencies", up2date-gnome terminates all of a sudden. No further output: # up2date creating readOnlyTransaction ** (up2date:3368): WARNING **: could not find handler `onRegPackagePageBack'
The step where up2date-gnome 2.9.33 terminates is after a few seconds at 0% of the dialog: ----- Registration Progress Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies ------ up2date-gnome 2.9.31 does lengthy calculations there, but proceeds flawlessly, also with the upgraded RPM (0.69) packages.
should be fixed in a future release, those particular versions are a little off kilter as they are the first versions using rpm-4.1
also, rpm changed the name of the call at some point, so some versions are mismatched
Still there in version 2.9.39 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 18, in ? from up2date_client import rpcServer File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpcServer.py", line 7, in ? import up2dateAuth File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2dateAuth.py", line 4, in ? import rpmSource File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpmSource.py", line 11, in ? import up2dateUtils File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2dateUtils.py", line 15, in ? import rpmUtils File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpmUtils.py", line 28, in ? import gpgUtils File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/gpgUtils.py", line 17, in ? _ts = transaction.initReadOnlyTransaction() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/transaction.py", line 65, in initReadOnlyTransaction read_ts.pushVSFlags(8) File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/transaction.py", line 54, in pushVSFlags self.ts.setVSFlags(self.tsflags[-1]) AttributeError: setVSFlags
Apparently, RPM's API keeps changing, and the u2pdate packages still does not depend on specific versions of rpm-python. But it ought to. Because that is the idea of package dependencies.
current versions of up2date require at least a specific version of rpm. I'm not going to make it depend on exactly a specific version, as that just causes more problems. The API should be stable once things are finalized.
