Hi, guys, I'm trying to do a step-by-step update, because if done at once text disappears ( bug 15465 ). After installing RC3, I installed the first batch of updates (about glibc and urpmi etc.), rebooted the computer and got the list of 610 packages to update. I then logged as root and this is my initial attempt (which already has gone wrong). Interestingly, when done automatically with drakrpm, everything goes smooth (minus the disappearing text, that is). An excerpt of my session: /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ [root@localhost ~]# urpmi kernel-desktop-latest Para satisfazer as dependências, os seguintes programas serão instalados: Pacote Versão Release Arch (mÃdia "Core Release (distrib1)") dracut 038 12.mga5 i586 kernel-desktop-3.19.1-2.mga5 1 1.mga5 i586 kernel-desktop-latest 3.19.1 2.mga5 i586 kernel-firmware 20150309 1.mga5 noarch (mÃdia "Nonfree Release (distrib11)") kernel-firmware-nonfree 20150309 1.mga5.nonfr> noarch 51MB de espaço adicional em disco será usado. 66MB de pacotes serão baixados.

I think you need to update the metadata (for example, urpmi.update -a) as there is now a new version of this package (kernel-firmware-nonfree-20150309-2.mga5.nonfree.noarch.rpm) and the old one is no longer on the mirror.

Thanks, Pascal! I (wrongly) supposed the GUI tool would do that; I'm really not that good with all the urpmi* options, though I can more or less handle the command line... Alas, there must be still something I'm forgetting or don't know, because I got that: O seguinte programa contém assinaturas erradas: [The following program has bad signatures:] /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/kernel-firmware-nonfree-20150309-2.mga5.nonfree.noarch.rpm: Assinatura não encontrada (OK ((none))) [Signature not found] Você deseja continuar a instalação? (s/N) n I blindly tried urpmi.update -ff repo for the core and nonfree ones. To no avail... Any other hint?
Ah, tried to do it by brute force and it kinda worked (though I'm sure if wanted to ignore security there must be a way in urpmi.update man page...). I did that: urpmi http://ftp.las.ic.unicamp.br/pub/mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/nonfree/release/kernel-firmware-nonfree-20150309-2.mga5.nonfree.noarch.rpm Marcando kernel-firmware-nonfree como instalado manualmente, não será orfanizado [Toggling kernel... as manually installed, won't be orphaned] writing /var/lib/rpm/installed-through-deps.list [SECURITY: the following package is not signed... ] SEGURANÃA: O pacote seguinte NÃO_ESTÃ_ assinado (OK ((none))): /var/cache/urpmi/partial/kernel-firmware-nonfree-20150309-2.mga5.nonfree.noarch.rpm instalando kernel-firmware-nonfree-20150309-2.mga5.nonfree.noarch.rpm a partir de /var/cache/urpmi/partial Preparando... ########################################################################################################################## 1/1: kernel-firmware-nonfree ########################################################################################################################## 1/1: removendo kernel-firmware-nonfree-20150204-1.mga5.nonfree.noarch ########################################################################################################################## Let's test the letters now...
Using: urpmi --auto-update Instead of : urpmi --auto-select does exactly that.
Status: NEW => RESOLVEDCC: (none) => thierry.vignaudResolution: (none) => WONTFIX
The missing signature was another bug which was fixed.
I normally use urpmi --auto-update, but it updates everything all that is upgradeable, while I needed to do things piecemeal (one by one... I'm trying to locate a package which ruins RC3 installation on my hardware). Regarding the present bug... Mercy. Please keep up the good work.
Sorry for the misspelling. Here now, hopefully correct: -- Merci beaucoup!
