#1450 Packaging issue in Fedora 11
Closed: Fixed None Opened 14 years ago by stefan.

I'm the maintainer of the qmtest package. It appears it has been incorrectly packaged for F11:
The package installs modules into /usr/lib64/python2.5, when the system only provides Python 2.6.
(In fact, on my freshly upgraded Fedora 11 system, I see lots of other files in /usr/lib64/python2.5, but no Python 2.5 is installed at all, only 2.6.

Is this a packaging issue, or do I need to do anything to resolve this ?

Thanks,


Going by what's in the fedora repositories, it looks like your system hasn't been updated all the way to F11. When I download the qmtest package, everything is in the right place:

{{{
$ wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com:/pub/fedora/linux/releases/11/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/qmtest-2.4.1-2.fc11.x86_64.rpm
$ rpm -qpl qmtest-2.4.1-2.fc11.x86_64.rpm | grep python2.5|wc -l
0
$ rpm -qpl qmtest-2.4.1-2.fc11.x86_64.rpm |grep python2.6|wc -l
353
}}}

Is the version of the package you have installed for Fedora 10? Can you yum upgrade the remaining packages?

I see ! Yes indeed, the installed qmtest is still the one from Fedora 9 (my previous distro).
However, 'yum list | grep qmtest' now doesn't display anything for me, i.e. it can't see the F11 version of qmtest. (This probably also explains why the upgrade didn't remove the now stale qmtest.)

What am I missing ?

Thanks,

I can't be sure, possibly you don't have the repository information for the F-11 repos? If you can come to #fedora on irc.freenode.net or email fedora-list@redhat.com, someone can help with debugging. This isn't a buildsystem issue, though.
