Description Elmar Stellnberger 2022-02-12 21:28:04 CET
It was a persistant error since months that I could install no new packages with Mageia Cauldron. Updates have still worked. Urpmi and urpmq were complaining about an invalid line in synthesis.hdlist.cz. The following did not help:
> urpmi.removemedia -a
> urpmi.addmedia --distrib any-mirror-url

  What did help and make me succeed was to manually remove the faulty line with grep after an unzstd in /var/lib/urpmi/Core 32bit Release and /var/lib/urpmi/Core Release. I will upload both; the synthesis.hdlists with faulty line and with this line removed by grep -v.

The files were too big for an attachement, but here is an upload: https://www.elstel.org/uploads/synthesis.hdlist/

Please also tell if you should no more need these files so that I can delete them on the server.
Comment 3 Thomas Backlund 2022-02-12 21:48:34 CET
you got caught by the broken perl-URPM update....

to fix:
rpm -Uvh

That seems having worked. However now it wants to uninstall epiphany (and some other packages) on update due to unresolved dependencies:

epiphany-40.3-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen nicht erfüllter Abhängigkeit von gnome-doc-utils >= 0.3.2 )
gedit-40.1-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen nicht erfüllter Abhängigkeit von python(abi) == 3.9 )
gnome-control-center-40.6-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0()(64bit),
  wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0(SMBCLIENT_0.1.0)(64bit))
gnome-doc-utils-0.20.10-17.mga9.noarch
 (wegen nicht erfüllter Abhängigkeit von python(abi) == 3.9 )
gvfs-smb-1.48.1-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0()(64bit),
  wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0(SMBCLIENT_0.1.0)(64bit),
  wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0(SMBCLIENT_0.6.0)(64bit),
  wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0(SMBCLIENT_0.5.0)(64bit))
gwenview-21.04.1-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen fehlendem kio-extras)
ibus-1.5.25-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen nicht erfüllter Abhängigkeit von python(abi) == 3.9 ,
  wegen fehlendem ibus-gtk,
  wegen fehlendem ibus-gtk3,
  wegen fehlendem ibus-ui)
ibus-ui-gtk3-1.5.25-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen nicht erfüllter Abhängigkeit von ibus == 1.5.25 )
inkscape-1.1.1-1.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen fehlendem python3-scour,
  wegen fehlendem python3-pillow)
kio-extras-21.04.1-2.mga9.x86_64
 (wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0()(64bit),
  wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0(SMBCLIENT_0.1.0)(64bit),
  wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0(SMBCLIENT_0.6.0)(64bit),
  wegen fehlendem libsmbclient.so.0(SMBCLIENT_0.2.3)(64bit))
etc.

Is there a way to update a singleton package like gnome-doc-utils before and then retry the update?
Comment 5 Thomas Backlund 2022-02-12 22:07:39 CET
yeah, you might to want a bit...

we are in the middle of an upgrade to python 3.10 rebuild so it will suggest to remove several packages until it's done...

technically upgrading a single package would be to simply list it:

urpmi gnome-doc-utils

but it wont help for now as it's part of the "python 3.10 upgrade hiccup"

packagers are busy rebuilding the deps, so it should sort itself out soon-ish...
