[opensuse-gnome] zypper dup leftovers?
Hi there,
I have a test installation that has been zypper dup-ed regularily
over a longer period and today noticed that a number of packages
remaining on that system may be obsolete? That is, do we lack a
couple of Obsoletes: at strategic spots?
% rpm -qa '*gnome*' | egrep -v '^patterns|^PolicyKit|gnome3|3\.'
includes the following:
bundle-lang-gnome-en-11.4-26.9.noarch
bundle-lang-gnome-extras-en-11.4-20.1.noarch
11.4? Should this be 12.1, or removed/obsoleted?
gnome-audio-2.22.2-35.2.noarch
gnome-desktop2-2.32.1-10.2.x86_64
gnome-desktop2-lang-2.32.1-10.2.noarch
Suspicous version numbers reminding me of older GNOME releases?
gnome-js-common-0.1.2-4.2.x86_64
gnome-mag-0.16.3-8.1.x86_64
gnome-main-menu-0.9.15-15.1.x86_64
Not sure about these.
gnome-media-2.91.2-1.1.x86_64
gnome-media-lang-2.91.2-1.1.noarch
Leftovers from pre-GNOME 3? Removing this also wants to remove
gnome-applets, but I guess this is okay?
gnome-panel-applet-tracker-0.11.0-4.1.x86_64
gnome-pty-helper-0.28.1-2.1.x86_64
Not sure.
gnome-python-desktop-2.32.0-10.4.x86_64
Older GNOME release?
gnome-speech-0.4.25-11.1.x86_64
gnome-vfs2-2.24.4-4.2.x86_64
gnome-vfs2-32bit-2.24.4-4.2.x86_64
gnome-web-photo-0.10.2-2.1.x86_64

Not sure.

libgnome-lang-2.32.1-2.2.noarch
libgnome-window-settings1-2.32.1-10.2.x86_64
Older GNOME release?
libgnomeprintui-2.18.6-6.2.x86_64

libgnomesu-1.0.0-336.1.x86_64

libproxy0-gnome-32bit-0.2.3-8.6.x86_64
libxine1-gnome-vfs-1.1.19-6.5.x86_64
mozilla-xulrunner20-gnome-2.0.1-4.1.x86_64
python-gnome-2.28.1-11.2.x86_64
python-gnomecanvas-2.28.1-11.2.x86_64
python-gnomedesktop-2.32.0-10.4.x86_64

python-gnomeprint-2.32.0-10.4.x86_64
python-gnomevfs-2.28.1-11.2.x86_64
Mixture of "not sure" and me wondering whether the 2.32 refers to
the latest GNOME 2 release?
If you prefer, I can file this in Bugzilla, just wasn't sure given
that most of this is not based on hard knowledge on my side.

Hi, The summary, for those not willing to read details below, is that we still have to ship parts of the GNOME 2 stack for some apps that need it; they're not leftovers. Le mercredi 13 juillet 2011, à 00:14 +0200, Gerald Pfeifer a écrit :
gnome-audio-2.22.2-35.2.noarch gnome-desktop2-2.32.1-10.2.x86_64 gnome-desktop2-lang-2.32.1-10.2.noarch
Suspicous version numbers reminding me of older GNOME releases?
gnome-audio just never got another release, and I was wondering if we should drop it. gnome-desktop2 is just the 2.x branch of gnome-desktop, that is kept because some packages need the library.
gnome-js-common-0.1.2-4.2.x86_64 gnome-mag-0.16.3-8.1.x86_64 gnome-main-menu-0.9.15-15.1.x86_64
Not sure about these.
gnome-js-common is fine. gnome-mag is now removed, but we have nothing that obsoletes it. It's unclear what should do that. Any proposal? gnome-main-menu is "fine": that's the right version, but we might drop it soon if nobody ports it to GNOME 3 technologies.
gnome-media-2.91.2-1.1.x86_64 gnome-media-lang-2.91.2-1.1.noarch
Leftovers from pre-GNOME 3? Removing this also wants to remove gnome-applets, but I guess this is okay?
That's the last release of gnome-media (with gnome-sound-recorder, which is nice). The dependency in gnome-applets is wrong now, I'll fix it.
gnome-panel-applet-tracker-0.11.0-4.1.x86_64 gnome-pty-helper-0.28.1-2.1.x86_64
Not sure.
They're fine.
gnome-python-desktop-2.32.0-10.4.x86_64
Older GNOME release?
Python bindings for some GNOME 2 libraries. Needed for some packages. You can try to remove it to see if you need it.
gnome-speech-0.4.25-11.1.x86_64 gnome-vfs2-2.24.4-4.2.x86_64 gnome-vfs2-32bit-2.24.4-4.2.x86_64 gnome-web-photo-0.10.2-2.1.x86_64 libgail-gnome-1.20.4-2.1.x86_64 libgnome-desktop-2-17-2.32.1-10.2.x86_64
Not sure.
gnome-speech: nothing obsoleting it. Same issue as gnome-mag. Maybe speech-dispatcher should obsolete it. gnome-vfs2: fine. gnome-web-photo: fine. libgail-gnome: fine, but you can remove it. libgnome-desktop-2-17: see gnome-desktop2 comment above.
libgnome-2.32.1-2.2.x86_64 libgnome-32bit-2.32.1-2.2.x86_64 libgnome-lang-2.32.1-2.2.noarch libgnome-window-settings1-2.32.1-10.2.x86_64
Older GNOME release?
libgnome: fine, there's no later release. You might not need it anymore, though, depending on what package is installed. libgnome-window-settings1: doesn't exist anymore, and since it's using slpp, we don't do Obsoletes for that.
libgnomeprintui-2.18.6-6.2.x86_64 libgnomeprintui-lang-2.18.6-6.2.noarch libgnomesu-1.0.0-336.1.x86_64 libgnomesu-lang-1.0.0-336.1.noarch libgnomesu0-1.0.0-336.1.x86_64 libgnomeui-2.24.5-2.2.x86_64 libproxy0-gnome-32bit-0.2.3-8.6.x86_64 libxine1-gnome-vfs-1.1.19-6.5.x86_64 mozilla-xulrunner20-gnome-2.0.1-4.1.x86_64 python-gnome-2.28.1-11.2.x86_64 python-gnomecanvas-2.28.1-11.2.x86_64 python-gnomedesktop-2.32.0-10.4.x86_64 python-gnomekeyring-2.32.0-10.4.x86_64 python-gnomeprint-2.32.0-10.4.x86_64 python-gnomevfs-2.28.1-11.2.x86_64
Mixture of "not sure" and me wondering whether the 2.32 refers to the latest GNOME 2 release?
libgnomeprintui: fine, but you can likely remove it. libgnomesu: fine, but we want to replace it. libgnomeui: fine, see libgnome above. libproxy0-gnome: probably not obsoleted because of slpp rule? libxine1-gnome-vfs: no idea mozilla-xulrunner20-gnome: fine, I think. python-*: same as python-gnome-desktop above.

The part with SLPP is correct, but wasn't zypper dup supposed to remove packages that no longer exist in any repository while doing a 'dup'? I do remember this used to be the case.

Only if the package is obsoleted, I believe. And we can cheat for that with some files in /etc/products.d/ (this is how it's handled on distro upgrades, I assume).
