Update of /cvs/extras/rpms/compat-guichan05/devel
In directory cvs-int.fedora.redhat.com:/tmp/cvs-serv11957
Modified Files:
compat-guichan05.spec
Log Message:
Add missing Provides: for the package that this obsoletes.
Obsoletes: guichan <= 0.5.0
+Provides: guichan = 0.5.0
Please don't. This makes a newer guichan EVR upgrade this package.
It is questionable behaviour in RPM that is covered in bugzilla.redhat.com
for a long time: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/111071
My bad. Rebuilding now. I was trying to fix a build failure in sear,
which now depends on the compat-guichan05 package:
http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-development-extras/31294-sear-0.6.3-4.fc7/
I don't understand why it still tries to pull in the guichan-0.5.0
package, when it's been obsoleted by compat-guichan05, and an update to
guichan-0.6.1 has already been built.
Any suggestions, or will the next push to remove guichan-0.5.0, after
which I can rebuild sear?
Together with the repoclosure report this smells a lot like a packaging
mistake (which in turn causes yum to pull in the old guichan package
which also provides the needed libs and has a shorter pkg name):
Here's what's happening as best as I can tell: the
compat-guichan05-devel package has a dependency on libguichan.so.0, and
on compat-guichan05. libguichan.so.0 is provided by both
compat-guichan05, and by the older guichan-0.5.0. When rpm is trying to
satisfy the dependencies, it's first trying to satisfy the library
dependency on libguichan.so.0, and it picks up guichan-0.5.0 due to the
shorter name.
I would have assumed that package-based dependencies be resolved before
library-based dependencies, but that doesn't appear to be happening in
this case.
Maybe we just need to manually remove guichan-0.5.0 (and
guichan-devel-0.5.0) from the repo to fix this problem?

These look *very* much like plugin DSOs, which ought to be moved
into the main package.
