Summary: Merge Review: system-config-date https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=226455 nphilipp@xxxxxxxxxx changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AssignedTo|nphilipp@xxxxxxxxxx |kevin@xxxxxxxxx ------- Additional Comments From nphilipp@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-03-26 04:11 EST ------- Hi Kevin, the conflicts can't be "fixed": system-config-date fails to work as a plugin for old firstboot versions. If a conflict gives an "ugly error" to the user, this error needs to be fixed in yum/pirut/whatever ;-). The old versions of firstboot were shipped in FC2 and before, so only users upgrading manually (the installer would resolve that conflict with the new firstboot version) from a version that old are affected and in this case, they should be presented with it at upgrade time, not later on with an ugly Python backtrace. Come to think of it, there have been discussions to "streamline" system-config tools for a later Fedora version, we might have to revamp the interface to firstboot again -- in that case, the new system-config tools will conflict with the up to now current firstboot versions as there is no other way to ensure that only matching versions of firstboot are installed if (and only if) firstboot is installed. On that modes thing, I guess you're right -- if there is breakage people should notice in the time between now and when we go final. I've built system-config-date-1.8.92-1.fc7 with these changes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
