Description of problem: I have updated my system from F15 to F17 (beta) following the procedure in the wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_16_-.3E_Fedora_17 I now have /bin, /sbin/, etc. symlinks to /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, etc. I installed the xfsdump pkg. after the F17 upgrade and it contains symlinks from /usr/sbin/xfsdump -> ../../sbin/xfsdumps (for other binaries, too). Result: # ls -l /sbin/xfsdump lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Apr 19 19:23 /sbin/xfsdump -> ../../sbin/xfsdump # ls -l /usr/sbin/xfsdump lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Apr 19 19:23 /usr/sbin/xfsdump -> ../../sbin/xfsdump Only the symlinks are there, not the actual binaries. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xfsdump-3.0.6-2.fc17.x86_64
Interesting. I didn't change xfsdump w.r.t. /usr for F17, it was only the system around it which changed. So it's the dueling symlinks which broke things I guess. :( Can you confirm that: http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/xfsdump/3.1.0/2.fc18/ (built for f18, with a hacky fix for the /usr move) fixes it? Thanks, -Eric
Yes, this package works for me. Thank you!
Thanks, I'll merge the changes to F17. -Eric

Proper F17 version should be in the repos soon, feel free to remove your f18 one from koji an make sure the "official" one is good as well :) Thanks, -Eric
