Revisor / yum odd error with f9 updates.newkey repo: Missing Dependency: glibc-common = 2.8-3 is needed by package glibc-2.8-3.i386
10:24 p.m.
Right now, revisor can build a pristine F9 installer CD but cannot
build a F9 + updates installer CD.
The problem appears by merely enabling the additional repo in the
stock F9 config files that ship with Revisor. It has also been
reported elsewhere: https://fedorahosted.org/genome/ticket/28
The error is
Missing Dependency: glibc-common = 2.8-3 is needed by package
glibc-2.8-3.i386
even though the updates.newkey repo clearly has the full set of
glibc-* packages at 2.8-8
The OLPC XS installer CD will be installed in many servers that are
disconnected or have a horrible internet connection. Additionally, we
*need* some of the updates from the updates.newkey repo. So I really
need this to work. It looks like a bug to me, but I'm unsure if it's
in revisor, anaconda, yum...
Is there any workaround I can use?
cheers,
m

_something_ is pulling in glibc-2.8-3 instead of 2.8-8. That's what's
horking the issue with 2.8-3, most likely.
But without more debugging info I'm hard pressed to tell you what's
happening.

Can't get revisor to give me a separate yum log at the moment, but I
managed to get yum into high-debug mode. So the messages are mixed
between revisor and yum, but it seems to make sense:
http://dev.laptop.org/~martin/revisoryum.log.bz2
It definitely sees 2.8-8, and I can't spot anything that calls
glibc-2.8-3 *except* that there's a mention of it being included "from
Groups" --
Including glibc
From Groups: Adding glibc-0:2.8-8.i686 to transaction
From Groups: Adding glibc-0:2.8-8.i386 to transaction
From Groups: Adding glibc-0:2.8-3.i386 to transaction
From Groups: Adding glibc-0:2.8-3.i686 to transaction
and later 2.8-3 wants the matching glibc-common, which *is* in the
repo. However, yum doesn't like it and it doesn't settle for the 2.8-8
set.
Do the logs make sense to you?
Also -- I did add glibc and glibc-common explicitly to the kickstart
file, but it didn't make a difference.

I excluded glibc* from the "Everything" repository in the
revisor-f9-i386.conf file just to get past this error.

Add
excludes=glibc*
to /etc/revisor/conf.d/revisor-f9-i386.conf in the [fedora] section.
(substitute x86_64 as needed)

thanks - I found the excludes in the manpage as well - that definitely
fixed it.

Fedora Unity has just released a Re-Spin of Fedora 9 + updates, and we
have not seen this problem.
Nevertheless I dug through the code and found a little discrepancy, now

I installed this respin and then tried to rebuild fedora 9 + updates on
this respin and got this glibc error.
Nevertheless I dug through the code and found a little discrepancy, now

this respin and got this glibc error.
Like I said there was an error in selecting packages that I fixed in
Revisor.
FWIW, also, this should be a warning, not an error and it should
definitely not be fatal. I tend to let Revisor exit out if something is
serious enough or fatal for the compose.
