Description Marc Krämer 2015-03-01 23:01:05 CET

On upgrade from mga4 the package is not replaced, still having the old python-pillow-2.6.2-1.1.mga4.x86_64

calling urpmi on this pagacke gives the output
"urpmi python-pillow
Das gewÃ¼nschte Paket kann nicht installiert werden:
python-pillow-2.6.2-1.mga5.x86_64 (um python-pillow-2.6.2-1.1.mga4.x86_64 zu behalten)
Wollen Sie trotzdem fortfahren? (J/n)"

There is no hint why, or what happens - even adding -vvv does not really change this.

After manually deinstalling the packge by rpm -e --nodeps python-pillow-2.6.2-1.1.mga4.x86_64 the new package is recognized.

Reproducible:

Well 2.6.2-1.mga5 is lower than 2.6.2-1.1.mga4...

It seems an update to Mageia 4 was made with a higher release number than the Cauldron one.

We should script a check against all packages...

Sorry, and thanks for the correction

sorry for the late reply - I didn't recognize the different versions, but for release urpmi should update the package by the new version.

Comment 8 David Walser 2015-03-02 23:33:56 CET

python-pillow-2.6.2-2.mga5 is pushed in Cauldron.

Still waiting on python-django14.

No.
urpmi uses rpmlib for comparisons so both compare EVR (Epoch:Version-Release).
That has always been like this.
