Fedora 8 Test3 and problem with updates

[Marcin Zajączkowski]

Hi,


Yesterday I installed Fedora 7.92 (i386) and the installation process
finished quite fast and without visible problems. There were almost 300
updates available so I started to do it in groups.

After about 100 updates and a few restarts something ate the Infinity
theme for gdm, which was set by default in t3. Login screen doesn't look
very nice, but I'm still able to login.
Was it intended to removed that theme?

In a meantime yum configuration started points to "normal" repository
(not development).

Later I wanted to update packages started with "f" (yum update f*), but
after downloading several packages installation process failed. I
separated problematic package - fedora-gnome-theme. The problem looks like:


=============================================================================

Complete!


I was able to update metacity, but had problem with some other package -
redhat-artwork seemed to has the same files as some fedora package.

Could it be conflict between packages installed from development
repository and those from "normal" fedora repository (after yum
configuration switch)?

That's OK.  Until Fedora 8 is released, the "normal" repository points
at the development repository on the backend.

Thanks,

Thanks, I thought it's done at fedora-release package level, but if
later fedora and fedora-updates points also to development then ok.

Btw, to prevent confusions of the readers it's still unknown (for me)
why the main problem with update occurred.

libgnome update problem (broken deps) (Was: Re: Fedora 8 Test3 and problem with updates)

[Marcin Zajączkowski]

Hi again,

Today I was able to narrow problem down to a dew packages (I installed
remaining over a hundred other updates).
I'm unable to update libgnome. redhat-artwork >= 7.0.0 seems to be
already installed, but fedora-icon-theme conflicts sharing the same
files. If needed I can make more tests.

What version of nodoka-theme-gnome do you have installed ?
I don't see that dependency here:

[mclasen@localhost gtk]$ rpm -q nodoka-theme-gnome
nodoka-theme-gnome-0.3.2-2.fc8
[mclasen@localhost gtk]$ rpm -q --requires nodoka-theme-gnome
fedora-icon-theme  
gtk-nodoka-engine >= 0.3.1.1
nodoka-metacity-theme  
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1

In one of the systems that I looked at there was a duplicate package 
which resulted in conflicts. It is better to run

# package-cleanup --cleandupes

to check. package-cleanup is part of yum-utils.

cleandupes didn't help, but anm old version of nodoka-theme-gnome was a
problem. It relies on redhat-artwork. Newer version of
nodoka-theme-gnome depends on fedora-icon-theme, but fedora-icon-theme
doesn't obsolete redhat-artwork and I was required to remove completely
redhat-artwork (and for satisfy dependency nodoka-theme-gnome) and later
install new nodoka-theme-gnome (and fedora-icon-theme for satisfy
dependency).

Maybe fedora-icon-theme should obsoletes redhat-artwork (if they have
shared files)?


Thanks for help
