Description of problem: hardinfo is woefully out of date. hardinfo2 is up to date. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): hardinfo-0.6-0.git20231013.1.mga10 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Sorry, I was on my cauldron install when I wrote this. git20231013 for mga9 as well.
Thank you for the heads up! New packages are genreally set to Cauldron. Do you think it is similar enough to be offered as an update in mga9, or should we rather provide it in backports?

I think it is similar enough for an update in mga9. Could be missed if it was a backport.
Created attachment 14477 [details] spec file for hardinfo2 This should be imported at least in Cauldron as the support for hardinfo is already suspended. Also, hardinfo2 seems to have a better handling of their benchmarks database for various system comparisons. On the other hand there is not much difference between them from an end user experience unless reporter run into issues of course.

Installed hardinfo2 this morning. Found it waiting in updates. Seems to work great. No issues to report. Thank you!

Thank you for testing :) Now on mga9 I tried old hardinfo, seem to work well but I dont know what more hardinfo2 can do. Maybe worth it. But one note: running last tests, at bottom of GUI it asks for "Alexey Kopytov's sysbench", which i did not find packaged. Reopening for decisions: 1) Cauldron Mageia 10 I think should drop hardinfo, and only have hardinfo2. 2) Comment 3 & 4 makes me think that on mga9 we could put it in backport - if easy to package, and it can get some mileage before mga10.

(In reply to Stephen Germany from comment #3) > I think it is similar enough for an update in mga9. Could be missed if it > was a backport. I doubt that an update could swallow a change of package name. In Cauldron, DavidG has already replaced hardinfo by hardinfo2. For Mageia 9, I doubt that we can do this with a change of package name. Put it in Backports - possibly. Assigning to DavidG who will know how to do that - if it is considered worth it (which I doubt).

Install hardinfo and hardinfo2 both applications works I really not see why this should be a backport urpmq --whatrequires-recursive hardinfo hardinfo urpmq --whatrequires-recursive ./hardinfo2-2.1.11-1.mga9.x86_64.rpm hardinfo2 But looks good to me
OK here mga9-64 Plasma X11 nvidia-current Works nice, incl Synchronize (report result) (at least give no error) Minor: I find it strange that the results are empty for "Boots" and "Firmware". Old hardinfo give exactly same emptiness, so not a regression. Do we miss some part or needed dep? No Console output that give a lead. Did not help to run it as root.

In my system show some info about the hdd Going to github page https://github.com/hardinfo2/hardinfo2 I see recommends to install some utilities lm-sensors lsscsi dmidecode xdg-utils udisks2 fwupd are easy to find in mageia iperf3 is found as iperf mesa-utils is split in glxinfo , eglinfo and mesa-demos And we not have sysbench If these utils are not added as recommendations or requires then at less instructions in the description or message after package installation should be good

Return to David to get feedback about comment#12
So recommended pkgs are added now except sysbench that we don't have! Re-assigning to QA, Packages in 9/Core/Backports_testing: ====================== hardinfo2-2.1.11-1.1.mga9 From SRPMS: hardinfo2-2.1.11-1.1.mga9.src.rpm

mga9-64 OK here Uninstalled previous version, installed the new with a few deps. I think we should test this in 32 bit too.
Tested on Mageia 9 i586 Works OK 2 curiosities * The section Firmware requires fwupd service is running * Ruining as root the section Operating Sytsem can't say what desktop are running (just detect I'm using kwin) but running as user no problem :)
