[Bug 479329] New: NVIDIA kernel module package depends on non-existing kernel
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479329 Summary: NVIDIA kernel module package depends on non-existing kernel Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bugreports@tittel.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.6 Package nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-pae and others from the NVIDIA repository have been updated to package version 180.29_2.6.27.18_0.3-0.1. These updated packages depend on a kernel version not yet released with openSUSE 11.1, hence the attempt to install these packages will fail due to dependency errors. This is especially sad for new users/new installations who/which don't have an old version of the NVIDIA driver already installed. Three possible (mutually exclusive) solutions: 1) Finally release the updated kernel (as I heard on IRC there is an updated kernel in the pipes anyways). 2) Release the modules packages of the new NVIDIA drivers for the kernels currently available in openSUSE 11.1. 3) Remove the new NVIDIA packages and revert to the old ones until the new kernel packages are ready.

This is not really controllable from us here. I hope that we can release the updated kernel today, but we needed to some other fixes to make it install good enough. -- 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.

# rpm -q module-init-tools module-init-tools-3.4-56.9.1.x86_64 ^^^^^^
Did you tweak your rpm popt config to show the architecture in rpm -q output? The weak-modules2 script does use plain rpm -qa in one place and such a change could indeed cause the failure you are seeing. The nvidia rpm installs fine here btw. -- 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.
