[07:04] <Sophie> marja: There is no rpm named `i8kutils' in (Mageia, cauldron, i586), but the word matches in Fc, Mdv, Mo, Pld

Hi,

Comment 3 Manuel Hiebel 2012-01-22 21:09:45 CET
Thanks Josh for the building the package ;)

But you need to add something:

[manu@vosdook ~]$ rpmdev-vercmp 1.33-1.mga2 1.33-2mdv2010.0
1.33-1.mga2 < 1.33-2mdv2010.0

I don't see that as a dependency for this. Is that another package needed to make this work or a new package thats needed for your laptop?

Those 2 listed look to be the same except for the release version number.

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: FIXED => (none)

Comment 5 Manuel Hiebel 2012-01-22 22:59:37 CET
Sorry, in fact it's not a dependency missing but a wrong mkrel iirc (don't know much about packaging). In normaly it should work. 
But here the package in cauldron will not update the one of mdv ;)
Comment 6 Manuel Hiebel 2012-01-22 23:01:52 CET
And I'am still under the 1, so can't test right now, but if it does'nt work I will tell you. (it's only for showing some fan speed and temperatures)

Thanks.

Ok, if it causes problems when you upgrade to Mageia 2 or if you upgrade to Cauldron please let me know with a new bug report. Thanks! :-)
