Description Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-02 16:58:04 CEST

Description of problem:

I am trying to install rpm-build.
The following packages are missing:
python3-pkg-resources
urpmi-debuginfo-install

Comment 1 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-02 18:33:37 CEST

For mga6, 
python3-pkg-resources: the source package is the python-setuptools
urpmi-debuginfo-install: the source package is the gdb

Comment 2 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-03 11:08:48 CEST

Here are some details about the error.
The problem lies in the version of the packages.

The packages exist in repositories, but not in the version requested when installing rpm-build

python3-pkg-resources: request=41.0.0-1.mga7, existing=36.2.4-4.mga7
urpmi-debuginfo-install: request=8.2-7.mga7, existing=8.0.1-1 and 8.0.1-2

Severity: normal => critical

Comment 3 Jani Välimaa 2019-05-03 14:41:07 CEST

As we build every pkg with rpm-build, the build system should be broken also if rpm-build isn't installable.

Have you tried other mirrors? What's the exact error? Are you using urpmi or dnf?

Comment 4 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-03 16:50:47 CEST

thank you Jani,
I think this is effectively a mirror problem.

I use distrib-coffee which is usually well synchronized.
I just checked with Sophie's website: urpmi-debuginfo-install is there with the version 8.2

I just checked distrib-coffee. The version is now 8.2

I try again, after syncing my own mirror.

Comment 5 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-03 18:32:14 CEST

In fact, it's my synchronization with rsync that is kidding.
I redid using ftp. Now it's OK.
thanks again
