Category: None Group: 4.2 >Status: Deleted Resolution: Works For Me Priority: 5 Submitted By: Erich Focht (efocht) Assigned to: David N. Lombard (dnl) Summary: update-rpms doesn't resolve all dependencies Initial Comment: update-rpms doesn't fully resolve dependencies. I think this comes from the fact that update-rpms doesn't handle the arguments "requirement >= NNN" correctly. It works fine with "requirement = NNN". Example: systemimager-server requires perl(XML::Simple) >= 2.08 Checking whether perl-XML-Simple is in the repository and the cache: [EMAIL PROTECTED] prereqs]# update-rpms --quiet --check perl-XML-Simple OK perl-XML-Simple /tftpboot/rpm/perl-XML-Simple-2.14-2.1.el3.rf.noarch.rpm -ihv Check which packages get installed with systemimager-server: [EMAIL PROTECTED] test42]# update-rpms --check systemimager-server-3.5.3-1 ==> /usr/bin/update-rpms '--check' 'systemimager-server-3.5.3-1' update-rpms, version 1.1.20 Cache: /var/cache/update-rpms Reading cache...

Even though there was no perl-XML-Simple rpm installed, update-rpms was claiming that perl(XML::Simple) is already installed. Unfortunately when checking for perl:XML::Simple with update-rpms, it was suggesting to install the perl-XML-Simple package, so that check was not detecting it. slocate finally revealed that there was a XML/Simple.pm file hidden somewhere in my tree which wasn't belonging to any rpm. It was a different location from the one of the OSCAR perl-XML-Simple package. As I never install CPAN packages directly (couldn't tell you how that works without looking it up), therefore I suspect this might have been a broken RPM build which must have happenend long ago. I'm sorry to have bothered with a problem which only existed on my machine, also sorry for having suspected update-rpms.

No, XML::Simple wasn't installed from CPAN, I never do that on test systems. The bug still remains, and my new highly speculative diagnosis is that this must be related to bug #1263911 (perl-XML-Simple recognition wrong on rhel3).

You didn't check to see if XML::Simple was already installed, e.g., by CPAN module... At any rate, it's clearly working with the rhel3 libs from current trunk. FWIW, the requirement form "package >= value" is so common, I doubt I could pass any of my unit testing with such an error. # Here I build a cache with the sis and perl-XML-Simple packages. $ update-rpms --cachedir=. --cache=W --url=oscar/packages/sis/distro/rhel3-i386 --url=oscar/packages/sis/distro/common-rpms --url oscar/share/prereqs/perl-XML-Simple/RPMS update-rpms, version 1.1.20 Querying RPMs...
