Description Greg McGee 2017-11-16 20:38:13 CET
The "mgaapplet-update-checker" program crashed. Drakbug-17.88 caught it.

I did nothing, app crashed doing its automatic updates, did not click etc.

detecting looping forever while trying to resolve dependancies.
Aborting... Try again with '-vv --debug' options at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.2/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/URPM/Resolve.pm line 1287.

Do you keep getting this error after rebooting your system, or does updating work fine then?

It came up after rebooting, when the app runs by itself.

I took it as a clue there were updates, manually updating via drakconf went without issues.

I did not retry starting the app.


FWIW, IMHO it should either pop up a notifier, or automagically download/install (configurable)

That was in Cauldron and it is actually perl-URPM that crashes. 

I don't remember having seen that anyone tried to run urpmi or "urpmi --auto-update" or so with '-vv --debug' options, as the crash reports seem to suggest.

It was maybe wrong to close reports about this "detecting looping forever while trying to resolve depend?ncies" crash as duplicates, because even if a dependency hell shouldn't make perl-URPM crash, the packages that cause it to crash probably need to get fixed, too.
