Adam, The path /updates/PackageKit-1.0.4-1.fc21,libhif- cannot be found <JC> -----Original Message----- From: test-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:test-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Adam Williamson Sent: Monday, January 19, 2015 3:20 PM To: test-announce@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [Test-Announce] Urgent F21 testing request: libhif and PackageKit Hi, folks! We recently found out that there were some significant problems with PackageKit and things that use it (GNOME Software, Apper, gnome- packagekit...) in Fedora 21, since the release of libhif-0.1.7 as an update shortly after F21 came out. The initial bug people noticed was offline updates failing to work, but in subsequent testing we found that regular package install and remove operations could cause crashes in PackageKit-based apps and it was possible for the PackageKit database to be corrupted. It would be great if folks could, as a matter of urgency, test this update: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/PackageKit-1.0.4-1.fc21,libhif- 0.1.8-1.fc21 Please install the updated packages, reboot (or at least restart the packagekit service), run 'pkcon repair' as root, reboot again, and then test regular use of GNOME Software and pkcon as much as possible - try installing and removing packages, running offline updates, and so on. If your package set is up to date you can try downgrading a package in order to test offline updates - try 'yum downgrade devassistant', for instance, if you have it installed, then check for updates in GNOME Software. As the bugs were pretty serious we'd like to release the fix as soon as possible, but at the same time we want to make sure we tested it thoroughly. Thanks folks! And thanks a lot to Richard Hughes for working to fix this quickly, and Kamil for doing a lot of testing on it. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ test-announce mailing list test-announce@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test-announce -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
