Description Doug Laidlaw 2015-05-03 15:18:33 CEST

Description of problem:
Installed gkrellm on new RC distro.  Main package is 64-bit.  gkrellm-plugins for 64-bit gives "Sorry, can't be selected." 32-bit package will install, but doesn't work on 64-bit main package.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
x86_64-2.3.5-13.mga5

How reproducible:

Comment 1 Doug Laidlaw 2015-05-03 15:25:33 CEST

rpm -qa gives:

rpm -qa | grep gkrellm
gkrellm-plugins-2.3.5-13.mga5
gkrellm-2.3.5-11.mga5
gkrellm-plugins-stock-2.3.5-13.mga5

I read that as saying that all packages are i586.  They aren't.

gkrellm and gkrellm-plugins-stock are x86-64 according to rpmdrake.
gkrellm-plugins for x86-64 shows as a needed download (blue button) but refuses to install.

Comment 2 Doug Laidlaw 2015-05-04 10:10:14 CEST

Workaround:  Installed 32-bit RPMs of everything.

Comment 3 Daniel Napora 2015-05-04 11:53:08 CEST

Can't reproduce.
Mageia 5RC 64-bit. gkrellm and gkrellm-themes 64-bit installs and works fine here.

It isn't gkrellm-themes that is the problem.  I don't have it installed.

It is gkrellm-plugins.

Comment 5 Jani Välimaa 2015-05-04 15:07:06 CEST

Can't reproduce. Installed x86_64 gkrellm-plugins which pulled gkrellm and all other deps correctly.

Comment 6 Doug Laidlaw 2015-05-04 15:33:56 CEST

Same here this time.  All deps except gkrellm itself were already installed.

Added gkrellm-plugins-stock with no problems.

No idea why it wouldn't work the first time.  "Sorry that package can't be installed" isn't very helpful.

Closed as invalid.

Sorry, had to specify a comment.

You can always try to install with urpmi to get more informative output.
