[opensuse-factory] Bug #431565: Distribution upgrade does not work on x86_64
by Rajko M. 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

We discussed private bugs today, and there is one more: http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs_11.1_dev Bug #431565: Distribution upgrade does not work on x86_64 Klaus? I wanted to see the bug as I did: zypper dup to go from Beta1 to Beta2, using new factory repository, and virtual installation works fine. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] boot success dependent on existence of fsck even when all filesystems squeeky clean/unSmart
by Felix Miata 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

Yesterday I was manually stepping Smart to bring a flaky old Athlon Factory system up to date when Smart complained about a conflict between a new package and the existing old e2fsprogs rpm. To resolve, as I often do in similar not-so-smart Smart upgrade cases, I did rpm -d --nodeps on e2fsprogs, expecting to add it back on the next Smart run. Before the current run could complete, the system spontaneously rebooted. On reboot naturally fsck couldn't run, so I rebooted to another distro to run fsck on all partitions. On reboot into Factory, init still dropped me to repair mode and ro / due to "dirty" non / filesystem needing checking, which was a blatant lie. I suppose I should report this as a bug, but would like to see what others think. Ideas? On a related note (not-so-smart Smart), Smart reported db errors, requiring me to run rpm --rebuilddb, on about 10 different runs during yesterday's "session", spelled out in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431722#c4 . -- "Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry."

[opensuse-factory] 11.1 Beta2: LiveCDs
by Christoph Thiel 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hi there, today we have rebuilt the LiveCDs for Beta2, which are currently too big, but should be usable at least as LiveDVDs ;) Please don't install from the LiveCD, as we already have a bugreport on "System unbootable after Live-CD installation" (bnc#432699).

[opensuse-factory] Beta2 availability?
by Per Osbäck 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hi, For me, only the delta isos are available from http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1-Beta2/ The iso dir is empty. When trying to download the torrents (tried i386 and x86_64) it complains about "unregistered torrent". The dvd isos I have only found on .gwdg.de ? /Per -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] weekday of Beta releases
by Frank-Michael Fischer 04 Oct '08

04 Oct '08

Assuming there is limited time between Beta and RC releases I'd prefer to release these versions on Mondays or during first half of the week. Otherwise there might not be enough Beta testers "active" during the first few days of the release period, meaning: bug reports (and later on bug fixes) might get delayed just for scheduling reasons.

[opensuse-factory] Is Updating from 11.1 Beta1 to factory supported ?
by Markus Koßmann 04 Oct '08

04 Oct '08

When trying to update a Beta1 installation (from x86_64 DVD) to Factory by setting the repo to Factory ( http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/factory/repo/oss/ ) an then running "zypper dup" i got : [...] The following packages are going to change architecture: perl-Net-DNS zypper yelp yast2-ycp-ui-bindings yast2-xml yast2-users yast2-transfer yast2-storage-lib yast2-storage yast2-sound yast2-slp yast2-qt-pkg yast2-qt yast2-profile-manager yast2-pkg-bindings yast2-perl-bindings yast2-nis-client yast2-ncurses-pkg yast2-ncurses yast2-libyui yast2-ldap yast2-hardware-detection yast2-gtk yast2-core yast2-control-center-gnome xsane xchat wv wireless-tools vinagre ufraw-gimp ufraw totem-plugin totem-pl-parser totem t1lib silc-toolkit sg3_utils scpm sax2-libsax-perl sax2-libsax sax2-gui sax2 satsolver-tools sane-frontends sane-backends rpm-python rpm rarian pyxml python-xml python-satsolver python-qt4 [...] The problem here is that the arch of rpm is going to be changed from x86_64 to i586. This will cause a broken update, because after installing the new rpm package, zypper can't install remaining x86_64.rpms any more. Should I file a bug against zypper or is this just an unsupported action or is there a problem with the repo ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
