[Bug 235896] New: "/usr/bin/gconftool-2: No such file or directory" errors during manual upgrade
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235896 Summary: "/usr/bin/gconftool-2: No such file or directory" errors during manual upgrade Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de QAContact: qa@suse.de During a manual (rpm -Uvh *) upgrade attempt from 10.2 to Factory, I've seen many "/usr/bin/gconftool-2: No such file or directory" errors from rpm, and the upgrade failed in the sense that several packages were double-installed afterwards because the old versions couldn't be removed from the rpm database because of failed rpm scriptlets. This is not the same as bug 235361. Bug 235361 is about the fact that %posttrans is run unnecessarily. This bug is about the fact that some scriptlets seem to be run at a bad time, where they can't work. So far I couldn't figure out the reason, but I think that the new scriptlets and PreReq don't work together. Either some packages are missing a PreReq or they are doing things the wrong way. Workaround: Manually update gconf2 first. -- 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.

Might be a problem with missing, bad or not properly working PreReq (%gconf_schemas_prereq). I am not sure, how double installation can happen: Old version scriptlet cannot fail - according to bug 48114, (probably all) SuSE packages had no %preun and %postun scriptlets related to gconf2. But maybe RPM stops upgrade, even if any scriptlet from the new package will fail. %pre does not call gconftool, so it can be only %posttrans, but posstrans is called after removal of previous instance. So I see another chance: Some packagers only changed paths to /usr without proper adopting of scriptlets. It will cause failure of %post nearly for sure, because old PreReq: gconf2 was fulfiled by the old instance. -- 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.
