Description aguador 2018-02-09 11:26:53 CET

After rebuilding my Cauldron installation (upgrading from Mga6), I am unable to install the proprietary driver for the nVidia card.

# urpmi x11-driver-video-nvidia-current-390.25-1.mga7.nonfree.x86_64
The following packages cannot be installed because the depend on older packages than those already installed:
lib64zlib-devel-1.2.11-4.mga6
lib64elfutils-devel-0.170-1.mga7
kernel-desktop-devel-4.14.16-1.mga7-1-1.mga7
dkms-2.0.19-39.mga6
dkms-nvidia-current-390.25-1.mga7.nonfree
x11-driver-video-nvidia-current-390.25-1.mga7.nonfree

Weird. I dont see that problem here...

Can you provide the output of the following commands:

urpmq --list-url --list-media active

urpmi --debug x11-driver-video-nvidia-current

Result of list of media

I should have tried another mirror, but this problem has persisted for about a week now on findrpm mirror.

The problem seems to be lib64zlib1-1.2.11-4.1.mga6.x86_64 v. lib64zlib1-1.2.11-4.mga6.x86_64.

Ah, indeed... seems the bugfix MGAA-2017-0125 in mga6 was newver pushed to cauldron, so the upgrade path broke... and by cauldron install was before that, so I never hit it :/

Anyway, a zlib-1.2.11-5.mga7 is on the way to the mirrors and should resolve this...

Thanks for the quick reply -- and glad to hear that an update in on its way.

Comment 6 aguador 2018-02-10 12:04:38 CET

lib64zlib1-1.2.11-5.mga7.x86_64 installed along with proprietary driver and bbswitch and the display is back to normal so bug can be closed. Thank you!

You could have closed it as you opened it :)

Closing now
