drakrpm dialog package selection

package selection from second time looking to install 'quick-usb-formatter' with strange statement about reduction in space usage (considering that no packages were installed first time around)

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the bug report.

I understand you still reproduce this crash?

@ Thierry

If just _clicking_ on kio5-smtp still causes this, what would then be the proper way to debug? As root run:

  urpmq -vv --debug kio5-smtp


?

Summary: drakrpm crashed checking dependencies for 'kio5-smtp' package => drakrpm crashed checking dependencies for 'kio5-smtp' package (detecting looping forever while trying to resolve dependencies.)

drakrpm dependencies for kio5-smtp

drakrpm dialog kio5-smtp dependencies - seem strange for a v16 module to have v17 dependencies, especially as there is a ksmtp-17.2.2-1.mga6-x86_64 package

A second and third run of 'urpmq -vv --debug kio5-smtp' in the same session as for Comment 4 ran OK without error and drakrpm was stable too.
BUT, after a reboot drakrpm consistently crashed again:

If I try to uninstall ksmtp package, these are the dependencies listed for removal:

- kmail-17.12.2-1.mga6.x86_64
- kmail-handbook-17.12.2-1.mga6.noarch
- kmailtransport-17.12.2-1.mga6.x86_64
- lib64kpimsmtp5-17.12.2-1.mga6.x86_64

I can recreate the crash, selecting kio5-smtp in rpmdrake.

The package kio5-smtp has been replaced by ksmtp, in the grand update to
the newer version of kde plasma.

My guess is that there is a missing conflict, and urpmi is not handling it well.

Assigning to the kde maintainers.

An updated ksmtp package with an explicit conflict on the kio5-smtp package
would likely stop urpmi from getting into an endless loop, which is causing
rpmdrake to crash.

As to the initial problem installing quick-usb-formatter, I can't recreate
that. It installed cleanly on my system only pulling in lib64f2fs0 and
f2fs-tools.

Assignee: bugsquad => kde

Thanks for investigating.
quick-usb-formatter is a bit of a red herring here, but it was what initially created the package conflict that caused me to investigate kio5-smtp and ksmtp. It still causes me problems when I try to install it, and I think there's another KDE4 to Plasma5 transition problem there, but I'll raise another bug to deal with that one.

Mageia 6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-09-30. It is no longer 
maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug 
fix updates.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan 
to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to 
a later Mageia version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we 
weren't able to fix it before Mageia 6's end of life. If you are able to 
reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click 
on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent
Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them
obsolete.

If you would like to help fixing bugs in the future, don't hesitate to join the
packager team via our mentoring program [1] or join the teams that fit you 
most [2].
