Description Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-02 16:58:04 CEST
Description of problem:

I am trying to install rpm-build.
The following packages are missing:
python3-pkg-resources
urpmi-debuginfo-install
Comment 1 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-02 18:33:37 CEST
For mga6, 
python3-pkg-resources: the source package is the python-setuptools
urpmi-debuginfo-install: the source package is the gdb
Comment 2 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-03 11:08:48 CEST
Here are some details about the error.
The problem lies in the version of the packages.

The packages exist in repositories, but not in the version requested when installing rpm-build

python3-pkg-resources: request=41.0.0-1.mga7, existing=36.2.4-4.mga7
urpmi-debuginfo-install: request=8.2-7.mga7, existing=8.0.1-1 and 8.0.1-2

Severity: normal => critical

Comment 3 Jani Välimaa 2019-05-03 14:41:07 CEST
As we build every pkg with rpm-build, the build system should be broken also if rpm-build isn't installable.

Have you tried other mirrors? What's the exact error? Are you using urpmi or dnf?
Comment 4 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-03 16:50:47 CEST
thank you Jani,
I think this is effectively a mirror problem.

I use distrib-coffee which is usually well synchronized.
I just checked with Sophie's website: urpmi-debuginfo-install is there with the version 8.2

I just checked distrib-coffee. The version is now 8.2

I try again, after syncing my own mirror.
Comment 5 Georges Eckenschwiller 2019-05-03 18:32:14 CEST
In fact, it's my synchronization with rsync that is kidding.
I redid using ftp. Now it's OK.
thanks again

Status: NEW => UNCONFIRMED
Ever confirmed: 1 => 0
