Using yast? How exactly? It seems that the list of installed patches was not removed during upgrade. -- 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.

But it's called just to remove the old selections. According to the note in the code (inst_rpmcopy.ycp) it's related to feature #301990 and bug #238488. Lukas? Jonathon, you can try removing files (but make a backup!) in /var/lib/zypp/db/patches directory. There are stored the installed patches. Does it help? -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=349533 User jrobiso2@ford.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=349533#c8 --- Comment #8 from Jonathon Robison 2008-01-23 12:29:52 MST --- Nope, neither problem helped by a restart. Next, I started by using the date stamp on /etc/issue as my install date, and deleted all of the patch descriptor files in /patches before that date. It worked, but still left about 12 items with Broken Dep popup. Carefully I went through what was listed and it appears that everything from 2007/11/30 and older needed deleted, so I did that. Note that for some reason, java-1_5_0-sun , while older than that date, did NOT cause an warning icon. Although I am getting the "fetchmsttfonts" offer again, that's no bother. So, YaST2 online update appears to be functioning and so is the KDE updater icon. Question: beyond fixing this in the installer, shouldn't there be an CLI option to zypper to "clean up" or rebuild its patch database? -- 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.

I took me a while to find out what should happen there and the result is this: * Bug #238488 removed the Pkg::TargetStoreRemove() call that would delete the patches while upgrading. * New function has been added Pkg::PkgUpdateAll() that is (also) configurable in the ways what should be removed More info on the @builtin PkgUpdateAll @param map update_options Options for the solver. All parameters are optional, if a parameter is missing the default value from the package manager (libzypp) is used. Currently supported options: $["delete_unmaintained":boolean, "silent_downgrades":boolean, "keep_installed_patches":boolean]

...

if a parameter is missing the default value from the package manager (libzypp) is used <<

Because the openSUSE control file doesn't define any keep_installed_patches option, Update YCP module sends 'nil' as a decision what to do with them and update_proposal.ycp just omits that key in a map if it is nil. An empty (undefined) key reaches the PkgUpdateAll() function. Then, the default value from libzypp should be used. So, either libzypp default values are incorrect or pkg-bindings don't evaluate the empty map/key correctly. If you are in doubts, please see http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/trunk/update/src/modules/Update.ycp function KeepInstalledPatches http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/trunk/update/src/clients/update_proposal.yc... function GetUpdateConf Pkg::PkgUpdateAll (GetUpdateConf()); http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/trunk/pkg-bindings/src/Package.cc function PkgUpdateAll Lslezak, please, check how pkg-bindings evaluate the empty key (undefined), maybe it's a bug (wrong value) in libzypp. PS: Jonathon, bug #238488 has been entered by another Novell partner, which is probably the reason why isn't accessible for you :( -- 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.
