Description Oliver Burger 2017-11-29 06:32:26 CET

Description of problem:
The package java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless = 1:1.8.0.141-1.b16.1.mga6 can't be installed.

Because of this, most other updates fail.

How reproducible:
Type "urpmi --auto-update", urpmi trys to download this package and fails.
Because of that, the update fails.

This happens in a newly installed 64bit VM in VirtualBox.

Hi Oliver, nice to see you again :-)

I don't have a Mageia 6 at hand, atm.

This is a fresh install, it is possible that you have more updates than can be handled in one default-size transaction, and that things that belong together don't end up in the same transaction :-/

Please retry, after first starting, as root 

   journalctl -af 2>&1 | tee log.txt

To rule out that problem is with packages needing one another not being in the same transaction, please increase the transaction size with the 
"--split-length" urpmi switch. You could try to set it to "0" for an unlimited transaction size.

If the problem persists, then attach log.txt to this report.

Cheers,
Marja

I'm sorry,

the problem was the company firewall.
For some unknown reason it blocks sevarl rpm packages.

In some cases I got a http 403 access forbidden, in some cases it just ran endlessly with no result.

After our IT whitelisted my prefferred mirror, everything is working again.
