Missing deps on the latest updates

[Paul F. Johnson]

Hi,

libcroco.so.2 is missing and is required for nautilus, gnome-games and
gdm, while the dependancy error for php and xine-ui (needs updating for
libcurl.so.3) is still there.

Any chance of fixing these?

I ran into the same dependency problem this morning but just selecting 
a different mirror for downloading solved the problem.

Which mirror are you using?

The first one below gave me the same error you noted:
> libcroco.so.2 is missing and is required for nautilus, gnome-games

and when I switched to the second I was able to update without error.  
As a side note, neither gnome-games nor nautilus was updated by the 
second mirror. As to which mirror is correct I have not investigated.

baseurl=ftp://limestone.uoregon.edu/fedora/development/$basearch
baseurl=ftp://fedora.cs.utah.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$basearch

This mirror doesn't have todays rawhide updates.

The following worked for me:

yum --exclude=libcroco --exclude=dbus* --exclude=desktop-printing* --exclude=librsvg2  upgrade

I just looked into /usr/lib and both libcroco.so.2 and libcurl.2 are
shortcuts to newer versions

libcroco.so.2.10 libcurl.so.2.0.2 are the latest versions imo. I
renamed these to the needed files and still no luck... does yum not
check /usr/lib for the files? Any Idea on how to make it?

Why whould you rename files?

-----
Package nautilus needs libcroco.so.2, this is not available.
-----

The above message means:

There is a newer version of libcroco available - but nautilus -
currently depend on the old version of libcroco.

Usually such issues are fixed in subsequent rawhide updates - when
nautilus gets rebuil with the new libcroco (at which point both can be
updated). Remember this is rawhide.

Did you try:
yum --exclude=libcroco --exclude=dbus* --exclude=desktop-printing* --exclude=librsvg2  upgrade

Yes I have done that now; two problems

1. On yum update I get the following error:

rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/__db.001: Permission denied
error: db4 error(13) from dbenv->open: Permission denied
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Permission denied (13)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 30, in ?
    yummain.main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "/usr/share/yum/yummain.py", line 163, in main
    (log, errorlog, filelog, conf, cmds) = parseCmdArgs(args)
  File "/usr/share/yum/yummain.py", line 75, in parseCmdArgs
    conf=yumconf(configfile=yumconffile)
  File "/usr/share/yum/config.py", line 155, in __init__
    self.yumvar['releasever'] = self._getsysver()
  File "/usr/share/yum/config.py", line 285, in _getsysver
    idx = ts.dbMatch('provides', self.distroverpkg)
TypeError: rpmdb open failed

On restart I get message startx failed. When i login and type startx
it goes staright into XFCE (My default).

PS I understand its rawhide; I  thought it was a good idea to be
involved in the test releases coz I am learning.

You can try rebuilding rpmdb and see if this fixes this problme.

rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db.*
rpm --rebuilddb

[Naheem Zaffar]

Does not work:
# rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db.*
# rpm --rebuilddb
rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/__db.001: Permission denied
error: db4 error(13) from dbenv->open: Permission denied
error: cannot open Packages index

PS also posted this in another thread.

ok - I'm not sure whats wrong here. You could look for running 'rpm'
processes - or reboot - and try again..

Yum gives a nice error message - if not invoked as root.

----
[balay@localhost ~]$ yum update
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)

Running as root.

Rebooting did not help either.

I looked into the /var/lib/rpm dir and there are the following files:
Basenames;Conflictnames;Dirnames;Filemd5s;Group;installtid;Name;Packages;Providename;Provideversion;Pubkeys;Requirename;Requireversion;Sha1header;Sigmd5;Triggername

Is there supposed to be anything else?
