Broken update path of ypbind in FC5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On 2006.08.07 an update to ypbind for FC5 has appeared: "ypbind-1.19-1".
After that, on 2006.08.21 a new update has been released: "ypbind-1.19-0.2".

Because of "0.2 < 1" in release field, this update takes no effect with yum-automated updating etc.
Bugzilla ticket for this is #203361

It is already third precedent of such issues, see (now closed) #199247 and #199248

The strange situation for me is that this issue was fixed for "rawhide" only.
After some amount of persistence just the binary "1.19-0.2" rpm for i386 has been removed (i.e. the update has been cancelled), but "1.19-0.2" is still present for ppc, x86_64 and SRPMS ...

This situation confuses me a little. My doubts is:
- Is it a right way to do such amount of my activity for this kind of bugs?
- What user should do in such case: just ignore the update or to update manually (rpm --force) ?
- Why I'm the only man who catch such kinds of bug? Whether other people see it too, or just think that it is not noteworthy?
- Does anybody use ypbind at all? :)  If yes, what version now exactly?
