Description Doug Laidlaw 2014-01-24 12:48:55 CET

The "mgaapplet" program crashed. Drakbug-16.26.1 caught it.

I wasn't doing anything.  I had logged in 8 minutes ago.

GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.18.1/i386-linux-thread-multi/Glib/Object/Introspection.pm line 59.
Perl's trace:

Theme name: Raleigh
Kernel version = 3.12.8-server-1.mga4
Distribution=Mageia release 4 (Cauldron) for i586

Presumably the applet was starting on schedule.  I had noticed that it didn't seem to be coming up.

I have always regarded similar DBus messages as nuisance only.

Comment 1 Doug Laidlaw 2014-01-24 13:03:57 CET

I just updated manually. There is an endless loop about procps and a few 64-bit libraries.  I will try again tomorrow.

Comment 2 Manuel Hiebel 2014-01-24 15:15:47 CET

please update, looks like you have a very old version of mgaonline.

Comment 3 Manuel Hiebel 2014-01-24 15:16:19 CET

but same message

Comment 4 Doug Laidlaw 2014-01-24 15:24:02 CET

I noticed that mgaonline seemed to be from Official.  

Trying a command line update, I now get this:

sudo urpmi mgaonline
[sudo] password for doug: 
error: db5 error(-30969) from dbenv->open: BDB0091 DB_VERSION_MISMATCH: Database environment version mismatch
error: cannot open Packages index using db5 -  (-30969)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm
unable to open rpmdb


I have no idea what that means, but I will try a cleanup of my rpm database.

Comment 5 Doug Laidlaw 2014-01-24 15:31:26 CET

Cleaning up the rpmdb got rid of the message, but then I was back at Comment 1.  There are 379 packages waiting, but the update exits with an error

Installation failed:	package procps-3.2.8-6.2.mga3.i586 is already installed

In the list of files to be removecd, I hade the 64-bit version:

procps-3.2.8-6.2.mga3.x86_64

Sounds as though something went wrong with the installation?

Comment 6 Doug Laidlaw 2014-01-25 02:40:35 CET

Just did a complete reinstall, starting from the Beta2 DVD. I now have

mgaonline-3.8-1.mga4

and the probblem seems to have gone away.  The batch of updates I mentioned in Comment 1 came down later, and all installed without any trouble.  I will now check my other bugs.

I notice that the version of mgaonline in bug 12416 was identical to mine, except that it had the mga4 suffix.
