Summary: cannot install grace if grace-devel is installed
Product: urpmi
Version: 4.4-34mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: packaging
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
urpmi reports "Everything already installed" when trying to install grace if
grace-devel is
alreadey installed.
It seems that if foo-bar is installed then "urpmi foo" reports "Everything already
installed"
In order to install grace, I had to do
urpmi grace-5
A temporary workaround is urpmi -a grace, but I have a script that enforces a standard
build for
my users and if I decide that perl and perl-gtk are in the standard but other perl are
not, using
urpmi -a perl would install all perl packages.
My script takes my std pkg list and isuue a urpmi <pkg1> <pkg2> <pkg3> ....
replacing urpmi with urpmi -a would lead to extra packages installed.
Here is a demo:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# urpmi grace-devel
installing
/crm/Install/Mandrake/9.1/i586/Mandrake/RPMS2/grace-devel-5.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# urpmi grace
Everything already installed
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# urpmi grace-5
installing /crm/Install/Mandrake/9.1/i586/Mandrake/RPMS2/grace-5.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm

(It was done on a MDK9.1 urpmi-4.2-34.1mdk but also applies to recent cookers. If you
need
more demo on cooker, I'll be able to past a demo from my collegue cooker laptop which
is not
present on site at this time)
