I tried to update the mozilla-xulrunner181 package via ZMD and it failed ('invalid package'). So I downloaded the RPM from my mirror and tried to do it by hand:
# rpm -Uvh /tmp/mozilla-xulrunner181-1.8.1.2-14.2.i586.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:mozilla-xulrunner181 ########################################### [100%] error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.8.1: cpio: rename failed - Is a directory
The package is in the mozilla repository, on my mirror the URL is
http://ftp.iasi.roedu.net/mirrors/opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/SUSE_Lin...
I also get problems with this package when installing from smart:
139:Installing mozilla-nss 140:Cleaning mozilla-nss Output from mozilla-xulrunner181-1.8.1.2-14.2@i586: /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.68434: line 3: /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.8.1/xulrunner: No such file or directory 141:Installing mozilla-xulrunner181 142:Cleaning mozilla-xulrunner181 143:Installing MozillaFirefox 144:Cleaning MozillaFirefox rmdir: /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.8.1b2: Directory not empty
Also, in /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.8.1b2, there are now two odd symbolic links that point to themselves (and thus do not work):
xulrunner-1.8.1 -> xulrunner-1.8.1 xulrunner-1.8.1.2 -> xulrunner-1.8.1.2
I am not sure why the older versions ox xulrunner still have files on the system when the rpms for them are gone. There are directories for /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.8.1, /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.8.1.2, and /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.8.1b2. Only mozilla-xulrunner181-1.8.1.2-14.2 is installed. A similar problem happened with xulrunner a year or so ago. That one took months to fix...
Try to rename or remove those directories and reinstall the package(s) to see if it works. You also want to create a bug report for it (if there isn't one already) Cheers, Magnus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
