[Bug 334810] New: YaST sw management selects newest (possibly wrong) versions of dependent packages
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334810 Summary: YaST sw management selects newest (possibly wrong) versions of dependent packages Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: pcerny@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Development Created an attachment (id=179218) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=179218) y2log before selecting "Accept" button When using multiple repositories (10.3 and Packman in my case) which have different versions of the same packages, the dependency solver always selects the newest version of package without any regards to other already installed packages. Example: 1) install fftw3 from openSUSE 10.3 [fftw3-3.1.2-62] 2) select either fftw3-devel or "install all matching -devel" and fftw3-devel-3.1.2-142.pm.3 (i.e. package from Packman repository) gets selected 3) resolver complains about missing dependencies (due to different package vendor) Such warnings can get extremely confusing and annoying for users. Also note that higher release of a package in repository1 isn't necessarily to be more up-to-date than lower release in repository2. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Please attach a solver testcase.
Please, be more specific about what info would you like from me aside from the already attached y2logs and screenshots (when it comes to YaST, I'm a schoolbook example of a total luser). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
