https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=211085 Summary: {gtk,glib}mm2{,-devel} does not obsolete old package names Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com gtkmm24 has been replaced by gtkmm2 glibmm24 has been replaced by glibmm2 gtkmm24-devel has been replaced by gtkmm2-devel glibmm24-devel has been replaced by glibmm2-devel All the new packages are providing the old package name (with version, which is good). But they are not obsoleting it. Without the "Obsoletes:" tag, the package manager does not have a hint that gtkmm2 is actually a newer version of gtkmm24 and that gtkmm24 should be uninstalled when a gtkmm2 package is available. But in this particular case, that would be the right thing to do because: - gtkmm2 is binary compatible with the libraries from gtkmm24 - gtkmm2 and gtkmm24 are not parallel installable, they contain overlapping files - gtkmm24 is orphaned, there will never be a new package with this package name The tags which should be added are: gtkmm2 Obsoletes: gtkmm24 <= 2.10.1 gtkmm2-devel Obsoletes: gtkmm24-devel <= 2.10.1 glibmm2 Obsoletes: glibmm24 <= 2.12.0 glibmm2-devel Obsoletes: glibmm24-devel <= 2.12.0 The versions should be written out (i.e. "<= 2.10.1", not "<= %{version}") because 2.10.1 is the last version that had been packaged under the old gtkmm24 package name. -- 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.
