Update 02/07/08 MessUp [solved]

JaDa · 2008-02-07 22:46:50

thank's guys for your nice breakage of packages

Starting with Firefox and Flash. Well after Update to firefox 2.0.0.11-2 the flashplugin 9.0.115.0-2 doesn't work anymore.

and take a look here
http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla … /2.0.0.12/

I don't understand why you update a FF 2.0.0.11-2 because the FF 2.0.0.12 is avaible. The same also with seamonkey
http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla … ses/1.1.8/

gcc

gcc 4.2.3-1, gcc-gcj 4.2.3-1 conflicts with gcc-fortran. I need to remove several packages first.

:: lapack: requires gcc-fortran
:: octave: requires gcc-fortran>=4.2.0
:: python-numpy: requires gcc-fortran
:: r: requires gcc-fortran>=4.2.0
:: scilab: requires gcc-fortran

gcc-libs provides now gcc-fortran , cool!

Now I try to reinstall

[root@arch-01 jada]# pacman -S lapack octave python-numpy r scilab
resolving dependencies...
error: cannot resolve "gcc-fortran>=4.2.0", a dependency of "lapack"
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

However, I am angry guys .......... I am very angry .........

I had no problems with the gcc upgrade. Just got asked "Replace gcc-fortran with core/gcc? [Y/n]" and all went smoothly. (gcc-libs-4.2.3-2, gcc-4.2.3-1)

Haven't tested yet but I am surprised about the firefox/flashplugin issue as these were in testing for a very long time. Hence the reason firefox is out of date already.

The developmer wrote me

Ok, seems I've been caught by the usual pacman behavior again:
[root@server jan]# pacman -S r
resolving dependencies...
error: cannot resolve "gcc-fortran>=4.2.0", a dependency of "lapack"
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lapack: requires gcc-fortran>=4.2.0
I'll build a fixed gcc-libs tomorrow. In the meanwhile, you could pacman
-Rd gcc-fortran and install the new gcc and/or gcc-libs. To satisfy
dependencies for packages that want versioned fortran, you can
edit /var/lib/pacman/local/gcc-libs-4.2.3-2/depends and change these
lines:
%PROVIDES%
gcc-fortran=4.2.3
gcc-objc=4.2.3

a fix is in process

may i ask if you only use Archlinux for doing the occasional upgrades of packages and not as a full time OS without being considered as a flame?
I am only asking cause reading other posts of yours as well in these fora i get the idea you seem not to understand how Archlinux packaging works at all. Even after almost a year of use.

well, you can ask me

so let me answer your questions.

First I am using Archlinux on differant computers, and not all will be update right by the way. My test computers get right by the way the updates, when ever a update is avaible.

This topic post is not a flame, it is a warning!

but I forgot something, geeks have no or low sence for irony

At the same time I wrote this posting, a email was going to the developmer from this package. This works sometime faster then the bug report. I see the new fixed gcc-libs 4.2.3-3 was out few hours later. Is this so bad

My main computers are for daily use. My wife, familie all using the Archbox for there school, university and office work and another openSUSE 10.3 set up for a game box. Around there standing several testboxes with FreeBSD, Debian, Suse, MacOS and Windows. The mainboxArchlinux must be stable, because I don't want to hear all time from my wife or kids, why is ths not working anymore?

Yes, most of my postings in the forum are related to updates. Well I don't use this forum for small talk.

The problem with gcc is fixed, and the problem with Firefox and Flash are still there. I just got the mail from Dale how ask me what is not working with Firefox. Let's see ..........

Allan · 2008-02-08 05:33:59

yabbadabbadont: Did you use the same server both times? It appear the server used the second time has not synced the updates yet.

Edit: just noticed that you did use the same server... very strange?

do you some how have testing enabled and then turned it off recently, only way I know to get that warning if u used same mirror.

yabbadabbadont · 2008-02-08 06:31:58

Nope. Just core, extra, and community. I'm using the primary server for all updates.

Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/i686

Not a big deal really. I'll sync it again tomorrow (today I guess, since it is after midnight ) and see what happens.

Edit: I just ran the update again. All three were updated again, but no problems this time. (nothing to be updated either) I figure that I just happened to have hit the repos while they were doing something to them. It used to happen now and then with the portage tree on Gentoo too. Same solution as well. Wait a while and run the sync again.

ftp.archlinux.org is not the "primary server" - it's a mirror, just like every other mirror. It has every chance of being just as out-of-date as any other mirror in the list.

There was nothing wrong with firefox to justify the -2nd build. It just moved to /usr. And in order to build the new one that package needed to go to extra from testing first. Flash works 100% ok here.
Most of the questions you ask in the fora could be easily answered, as well as maintaining a "more stabler" system if you followed development just a bit. ut with all these distros and OS's maybe it would be impossible to do so for all. I would recommend reading the arch0devel-public mailing list.IMO at least Arch requires that as its a distribution which constantly evolves and hasnt reached a certain level of maturity yet. But since phrakture took over things are betting much better very fast.

well after I read this tread
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=327826

On my testbox it looks like this

/opt/mozilla/lib/plugins:/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

/usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.11/plugins

/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

I try to find a work around for my Problems Firefox with Flash. All plugin's are in the folder /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ ! I found out that also seamonkey in seamonkey the flashplugin 9.0.115.0-2 doesn't work!

Have anybody a idea or a solution for this problem?

I have take a look at the package build, what a "mess". I just build a Firefox 2.0.0.11-3 based on the PKGBUILD from Firefox 2.0.0.11-1

The problem with gcc was solved after update to gcc-libs 4.2.3-3, thank's for the quick fix

now Firefox and the flashplugin. I removed all mozilla applications, deleted the Mozilla and firefox Folders in /opt/* and /usr/* and Installed all new.

Well the problem with Firefox was solved. What ever it was, I have no Idea.

I checked my another two browsers Opera & Seamonkey. Opera 9.25 works fine with out Flash (not compatible to flashplugin 9.0.115.0-2) but Seamonkey want take any plugins.

see how it looks
