[Bug 236142] New: unversioned self-provides should be a fatal error
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=236142 Summary: unversioned self-provides should be a fatal error Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Packages are starting to provide themselves again on Factory, so far I could identify libxfcegui4 and libxflaim-devel. This is dangerous (see bug 186079) and always wrong. rpm automatically adds a versioned self-provides and whenever an additional unversioned one is needed to make things work, it's a bug somewhere. Therefore, autobuild should reject such packages. postgresql uses an explicit versioned self-provides for maybe-legitimate(?) purposes, so the check should be restricted to completely unversioned self-provides for now. The same is true for self-obsoletes and self-conflicts, but these seem to be rare. So far I've just seen 1 self-obsoletes and 1 indirect self-conflicts. -- 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.
