[Bug 271731] New: Duplicate license dialogs during update (ati kernel and x.org modules)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=271731 Summary: Duplicate license dialogs during update (ati kernel and x.org modules) Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 3plus Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: gp@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com CC: sndirsch@novell.com When updating my workstation from STABLE as of earlier that week to STABLE, but probably also a few other times, I noticed that some of the license dialogs appear as duplicates, notably those for the ATI kernel and x.org modules. The first instance looks somewhat different than the second, but basically I had to acknowledge the license twice. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

If you select a package or patch for installation that has a license (from the packages.$LANG file), you are prompted to confirm or reject that licenses right away. (2) Upon "accept" in the package / patch selector the remaining pending licenses are presented one by one. (3) In the patch installation workflow, each patch's individual "need to confirm license" flag is checked and the licenses are presented as each patch is installed. Libzypp keeps track of which licenses are already confirmed and which are not. The application needs to check that for each individual license and display only those that are not confirmed yet. The package / patch selector does that - I just checked again. AFAICS the popup from comment #1 are from (1) and/or (2), and the popup from comment #4 is from (3). There is a slight possibility that the licenses are handled within libzypp not on the "selectable" level, but on the "resolvable" level. ma@novell.com might know more. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

BTW, this particular ATI situation can never occur in real life since the ATI/NVIDIA packages are only available internal or only with SLES10/SLED10 *after* NCC registration. On the other hand it probably can occur with any other KMP package which will be on our installation media. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Libzypp keeps track of which licenses are already confirmed and which are not. The application needs to check that for each individual license and display only those that are not confirmed yet. The package / patch selector does that- I just checked again.
Exactly. Libzypp provides a bit in the status field, where the application can remember whether the license was confirmed. It's the applications responsibility to TEST and SET this bit.
There is a slight possibility that the licenses are handled within libzypp not on the "selectable" level, but on the "resolvable" level. ma@novell.com might know more.
Of course a license is handled per resolvable. Different versions of a package may have different licenses. (In reply to comment #14)
IMHO zypp developers should decide if the behavior is buggy.
Zypp is a library, and does not care how many times an application asks the user to confirm a license. We'll extend our solver test cases, so check whether we could loose this bit when solving. If not, it's a YaST problem. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
