player f18: broken deps?

[Ankur Sinha]

Hi folks,

I'm running fedora 18. I've been seeing this error recently during
updates:

Resolving Dependencies
--> Running transaction check
---> Package geos.x86_64 0:3.3.2-3.fc18 will be updated

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
[root@ankur ~]#

Just thought I'd point it out, in case it hadn't been noticed yet.

Looks like the new geos got submitted with a rebuilt player package[1],
hopefully you're just seeing a mirror sync issue or something.

Hi Rich,

I thought so too. However, I've dug up some, and looks like the player
update in updates testing requires:

Error: Package: player-3.0.2-21.fc18.x86_64 (updates-testing)
           Requires: libgeos-3.3.2.so()(64bit)

while the geos in updates testing provides a different soname version:

[root@ankur ~]# repoquery --provides geos
geos = 3.3.6-1.fc18
geos(x86-32) = 3.3.6-1.fc18
libgeos-3.3.6.so
libgeos_c.so.1
geos = 3.3.6-1.fc18
geos(x86-64) = 3.3.6-1.fc18
libgeos-3.3.6.so()(64bit)
libgeos_c.so.1()(64bit)

(Notice the difference in soname versioning). Somehow, the player update
seems to have been built against an older geos soname version and is why
yum barfs.

I checked up the player build log and found that it had been built
against an older geos (geos-devel-3.3.2-3.fc18.x86_64):
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/player/3.0.2/21.fc18/data/logs/x...

A rebuild should fix it I guess. I've given negative karma to the update
for the time being :(
