full list of RPMs on the Fedora 14 machine

Description of problem:
I cannot use yum to upgrade from an up to date Fedora 14 install to Fedora
15. Yum reports dependency errors, and if I use --skip-broken as suggested
it then dies with a depsolve error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.28-6.fc14.noarch

'yum --releasever=15 --disableplugin=presto distro-sync' winds up reporting:

Error: Package: libpanelappletmm-2.26.0-2.fc12.x86_64 (@anaconda-InstallationRepo-201010211827.x86_64/14)
           Requires: libpanel-applet-2.so.0()(64bit)
           Removing: gnome-panel-libs-2.32.0.2-2.fc14.x86_64 (@anaconda-InstallationRepo-201010211827.x86_64/14)
               libpanel-applet-2.so.0()(64bit)
           Updated By: gnome-panel-libs-3.0.0.1-4.fc15.x86_64 (updates)
               Not found
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

('rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest' produces no output. I've also tried
'yum check', which reports no problems.)

yum --releasever=15 --disableplugin=presto --skip-broken distro-sync winds
up reporting:

Running rpm_check_debug
ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve:
pygtk2 = 2.17.0-9.fc14 is needed by (installed) pygtk2-libglade-2.17.0-9.fc14.x86_64
Please report this error in http://yum.baseurl.org/report
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

This is happening on a 64-bit very stock Fedora 14 install but I have also
seen it happen on a somewhat more customized 32-bit Fedora 14 machine.

This machine has only Fedora repos enabled, and 'yum list extras' reports
only two older Fedora 14 kernels. I will attach a full RPM package list.
Please let me know if there is additional information that you would like.

Ok, this looks like a bug ... can you run:

yum list --showduplicates --releasever=15 pygtk2 pygtk2-libglade

Comment 3 James Antill 2011-06-02 15:39:22 UTC
Ok, can you attach the full output of the update?

At a guess you might be able to work around it with:

yum shell
update
remove libpanelappletmm
run

Comment 4 Chris Siebenmann 2011-06-02 16:46:03 UTC
Normally I'd say that here is the full output from 'yum --releasever=15 --disableplugin=presto --skip-broken distro-sync', except that when I ran
it now (with stdout and stderr redirected to a file to get said ouput), it
actually worked (skipping what looks like a bunch of packages, so we'll see
how well the resulting system works ... but that's another issue).

I can attach the output anyways if it would be interesting to you, and if
you want some original-bug output I have it in a 'script' capture (which will
probably be sprayed with control characters and so on) and can attach it
here. Let me know.

(Also, after the distro-sync succeeded your yum shell workaround worked
fine.)

Comment 5 James Antill 2011-06-02 17:03:45 UTC
yeh, attach the original script output. Tim might be able to work out what the problem was with that.

Fedora 14 depsolve typescript

Here is the saved 'typescript' file from script for a run where things
failed with the depsolve error. I haven't tried to clean it up (well,
not very much), so it still has ^M's and escape codes and so on.
Hopefully it's still useful.

Comment 7 Tim Lauridsen 2011-06-07 07:44:19 UTC
Don't see any Skip-broken issues 

	Running rpm_check_debug
	ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve:
	pygtk2 = 2.17.0-9.fc14 is needed by (installed) pygtk2-libglade-2.17.0-9.fc14.x86_64
	Please report this error in http://yum.baseurl.org/report
	 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

This is found by the rpm check.

Comment 8 Chris Siebenmann 2011-06-07 15:40:02 UTC
I should note that I am still seeing this problem on a real machine. As
far as I can see, all of the packages that 'rpm -e --test pytgk2-libglade'
reports as depending on it have Fedora 15 versions, although I did not
exhaustively check to see if they were in the update list.

I have the full output of 'yum --releasever=15 --disableplugin=presto
--skip-broken distro-sync' if you think that it would be of use, and I'm
willing to run yum with diagnostic switches if that would help. Just tell
me what to do and what output you want from it.

Comment 9 Tim Lauridsen 2011-06-07 16:56:53 UTC
I look like most of the update from F14 -> F15 is skipped because there is no upgrade path for libpanelappletmm and you end up somewhere between F14 & F15
where pygtk2 is updated to 2.24, but pygtk2-libglade upgrade to 2.24 is pulled by skip-broken and then the installed pygtk-libglade 2.17 is missing the matching pygtk2 2.17 counterpart.

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 11 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-06 20:01:26 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
