Fedora :: Fails With Different Messages Which Looks Like:Could Not Add Package Update?
Apr 29, 2010
I installed Fedora 12 inside VirtualBox and trying to make Software Update. It fails with different messages which looks like:Could not add package update for ..Package name may differ. Internet connection is working. Is there another way to update the system?
my update today failed, because the packages raydium and maniadrive depend on libphp5-5.2.9.so, which is provided by php-embedded, which is (apparently) not in the fedora 64bit repository There does however seem to be an i586 version...
No updates are available No network connection was detected. =================================
I did updates almost daily on wheezy
Todays updates [via the Pkg Updater GUI] were over 300 meg. After the updates and reboot System was showing version 8.0 in the GUI desktop and using 'cat /etc/debian_version'
Then... From terminal I did ...
apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade
The dist-upgrade was over 40 minute and ~ 500meg
Things seemed to go well.
I updated sources.list with apt-spy.
[In order to trouble-shoot: I subsequently commented-out the apt-spy sources and found some generic sources on internet]
when ever i try to install updates i get shown an error & the updates stop the error i get says "librpmio.so.0 is needed by package abrt-1.0.3-1.fc12.i686 (updates) librpm.so.0 is needed by package abrt-1.0.3-1.fc12.i686 (updates)"
When I did update a few minutes back, it showed me the following messages
Quote:
/boot/initramfs-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE.img: contents have been changed /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko: No such file or directory
[code]...
I've not changed contents of any of these. Then why does it show me this messages? I did install akmod for my Nvidia graphics card for which I followed the steps mentioned for nouveau.
I have many servers running CentOS 5. I noticed yesterday many had a notificationthat updates were available. I clicked update and they all fail using the GUI. WhenI run yum update it shows packages to be upgraded and asks me to confirm. I enter yes but Yum fails on the first package. I wonder if this has something to do with therelease of 5.3?I get the same failure if I run a yum upgrade too.

after a while of using Gnome with Fedora 12, I installed Openbox and started the configuration process. Everything is pretty much just the way I like it, but when I open the package manager and try to install something, it says "Authorization failed: you have failed to provide proper authentication. Please check any passwords or account settings" I'm sure it's because I forgot to add something to my autostart.sh, but I'm not sure exactly what...
I have a desktop running on Fedora 14. I installed LAMP by using scripts for package installation. That works fine. Also, I have a virtual environment (Virtual Machine Manager), in which I installed Fedora 14 as well. I tried to install LAMP by the same scripts and the same packages as on my desktop, but strangely - it does not work.
I figured out that in both cases two instances of httpd.conf are installed, one residing in /etc/httpd/conf/, the other one in /usr/local/apache2/conf. The first one seems to belong to the server that is by default installed together with Fedora 14. The second one is the result from the package installation.
For a reason unknown to me, the second one (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf) is always activated on my desktop, while the first one (/usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf) is activated by default in my virtual computer. I have been able to change the DocumentRoot with succes.
I know how to install LAMP with yum, I have a second virtual computer with LAMP installed by yum, and the whole question is not an urgent one, but... I am just curious... what could have caused the difference? And what would I have to do whenever I would like to use the package installation or vice versa?
I'm having troubles running systemtap scripts. It fails to run with message:
Code:
Checking "/lib/modules/2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i686/build/.config" failed: No such file or directory Ensure kernel development headers & makefiles are installed.
Then I typed:
Code:
$rpm -q kernel kernel-devel kernel-debuginfo kernel-2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i686 kernel-devel-2.6.33.5-124.fc13.i686 kernel-devel-2.6.33.6-147.fc13.i686 package kernel-debuginfo is not installed
So no kernel-debuginfo, a package which I cannot find in repo. So where to get it and why it's not included in default installation if SystemTap is. It's like having Apache without tcp/ip stack.
With the last set of patches and updates my Fedora 12 box will get to starting ATD and the screen blnks a few times and the boot process stops.I tried typing "I" for interactive boot so I could skip "atd" and try to recover the box without any luck.
My wireless worked perfectly on my clean install of Fedora 11. However, after the system update, my wireless continued to work perfectly for about ten minutes. Then it dropped the network connection. however, it still says that it is connected, although I cannot load any web pages, nor get email, nor connect to anything at all.When I reload the connection it continues to say it is connected, after prompting for the password that used to be saved and used automatically. It now works for maybe a few seconds at a time, loading part of a web page, then stopping.
Since a while I get the following message when trying to update Eclipse release 3.4.2 on Fedora11x64:
An error occurred while unconfiguring the items to uninstall The artifact file for org.eclipse.equinox.launcher/osgi.bundle/1.0.101.R34x_v20080819 was not found.
Download of the packages seems to be OK. I also cannot do any manual update or installation.
installed F12 on my Acer Aspire 1640 laptop. everything seems to work fine and smooth, but.the software update does not work:
Code: Error Type: <class 'yum.Errors.RepoError'> Error Value: Error getting repository data for installed, repository not found File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 3125, in <module> main() File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 3122, in main
I am running F13 GNOME on a Fujitsu laptop. It ran flawlessly for months until yesterday when I got this error message when I tried to do a software update:"Failed to initialize". Under "more details" I see: "YumBaseError: Error: rpmdb open failed"When I run anything in the command line with the word yum in it, I get:
rpmdb: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery error: db3 error(-30974) from dbenv->open: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery

I have boot as a separate partition, this time around I have set it to ext4 for the first time. That partition is only 250 Mb, but that has always been sufficient in the past, perhaps I am holding too many kernels or kernel versions?
found this in my boot log nvidia.ko for kernel 2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.x86_64 was not found. and the driver is disabled and X is not working correctly. I tried removing the driver "yum remove kmod-nvidia "
then re-installing and rebooting. same issue I went to the fusion site and followed there install guide again same issue. made sure the free driver is blacklisted in grub.conf kernel lines
Updated occurred yesterday and installed new ppp on my F12 box. my previously working, stored PPTP profiles under network manager failed to connect claming some thing about security credentials wrong.) downgraded (yum downgrade ppp) , rebooted and its working again. Im not sure where the real problem is, can "the gods above" or below either forward this to the apporpriate bug tracker (packager, testing, redhat, who owns ppp? network manager?) so this is fixed or downgraded in the next F12 update cycle?
Installed Fedora 12 in a 3.1.6 Virtual Box with Open Solaris as the host OS. All went well, with Guest Additions and was really nice. Until however I did a yum update and now it fails to boot, or at least get to a login box. how I can watch the boot information i.e. turn off the splash screen whilst it is coming up?
I upgraded to Fedora 13 and followed the "post-upgrade cleanup" instructions.Right now yum update is failing on the following error:Quote:
---> Package perl-Net-LibIDN.x86_64 0:0.12-3.fc13 set to be updated ---> Package perl-Net-SSLeay.x86_64 0:1.36-1.fc13 set to be updated kde/filelists_db | 1.0 MB 00:01 [code]....
I updated Fedora 12 a couple of weeks ago, and Amarok stopped working. The splash screen came up, and hung there until clicked on. Looking at the process, it uses 49-50% CPU (weird since it's on an Acer One netbook with an Atom N270 single core processor) and the memory footprint steadily increases. I hung on for another update to see if that fixed it, but one came through today with an update to Amarok, but it is still broken.
I'm running F12 and Package Updater has been telling me to update Thunderbird for two days but fails on every attempt. I tried to go the yum route today with yum remove thunderbird yum install thunderbird
And I get this error: Error: Package: thunderbird-3.0.10-1.fc12.i686 (updates) Requires: nss >= 3.12.8 Installed: nss-3.12.7-6.fc12.i686 (@updates) nss = 3.12.7-6.fc12 Available: nss-3.12.4-14.fc12.i686 (fedora) nss = 3.12.4-14.fc12
Is there any way I can update nss such that Thunderbird will have access to the correct version or is this something that is in process for the repository?
