Description Dave Hodgins 2012-11-07 02:13:15 CET

Starting with a Mageia 2 install with updates testing enabled as
an updates repository (rpm-4.9.1.3-2.1.mga2 installed), using
the x86-64 dvd iso to upgrade fails.

If I'm reading the report correctly, the problem is the util-linux
package not having a provides for losetup, causing a urpmi cascade
error.

I'll attach the report.bug.xz

ddebug.log.xz

Including ddebug.log.xz and install.log.xz as report.bug.gz was not updated during upgrade since the upgrade never finished.

It failed with 140 odd transactions failed, the first of which was..

rpmlib(X-CheckUnifiedSystemdir) is needed by filesystem-2.1.9-18.mga3.i586

Also after it failed it returns to the additional media screen where I added online medias and tried several more times to complete the upgrade. Each time it fails with this same message.

I notice it in Dave's log too, somewhere in the line 18000 range.

Comment 4 Colin Guthrie 2012-11-07 21:13:54 CET

Neither log shows the string "converting filesystem for usrmove" which means the filesystem is not converted. Also neither log shows the "starting step beforeInstallPackages" that I would expect meaning that the hook is simply not firing in the first place.

Are you using the GUI or text mode or ??

Comment 5 Colin Guthrie 2012-11-07 21:35:11 CET

Actually, I don't expect to see "starting step beforeInstallPackages". I do actually see some log output from the beforeInstallPackages bit ("setting excludedocs to") but it seems the whole section inside the "if ($o->{isUpgrade})" is not run...  the value of isUpgrade should be "mageia" as this is printed out in the log earlier ("remove-from-entry").

Colour me confused....

Comment 6 Colin Guthrie 2012-11-07 21:42:28 CET

My only guess is this is an iso created with an older stage 2? i.e. created a few days ago before Anne updated stage2 on the 3rd November.

Comment 7 Thomas Backlund 2012-11-07 22:04:27 CET

Ah, indeed... the one I fixed for first livecd did not contain the new code, my bad...

I got confused by the "- properly generate stage2 with a usrmove-esque fs layout" in 14.48

But the code is 14.49, so it should work better with next set of isos :)

Comment 8 Colin Guthrie 2012-11-07 22:09:09 CET

Sweet! :)
