Unable to upgrade packages in rawhide

krishnastk · July 3, 2023, 8:51am

Hi All,

I have performed the following steps:

Pulled the fedora:rawhide image.
Executed yum update -y to update the packages.
Installed the nano-1.3.12 package from artifactory.
Checked the latest version of the nano package (nano-2.0.9) in Artifactory.
Attempted to upgrade the package using yum update -y.
Noticed that the package was not upgraded.
Verified the presence of both versions of the nano package using yum info.
Observed that the package upgrade works as expected in the current fedora:latest image.

Please note that despite having the latest version of the nano package in Artifactory, the upgrade using yum update -y did not occur in the fedora:rawhide image.

can someone please help me with this?

From Docker?

Is this some third-party repo? Nano 2.0.9 is from about 2008, so quite outdated.

nano in Fedora’s rawhide repo is version 7.2, see https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/nano/nano/

Please provide the output of dnf5 repolist

jn64 · July 3, 2023, 9:49am

It shouldn’t matter what the repo or software is. The problem is dnf5 not upgrading when there is seemingly an available upgrade with higher EVR. Both epoch 0, 2.0.9-1 is higher than 1.3.12-1.1

Can you get the solving data:

cd /tmp
dnf --assumeno --refresh up nano --debugsolver
cat debugdata/packages/{testcase.t,solver.result}

Note it might create some large files in ./debugdata with the repo metadata, depending on the repos you have enabled.

Hi @augenauf ,

I have configured my local artifactory repo and uploaded both the packages to it.

[root@94cbc4c8c9ad packages]# dnf5 repolist
repo id                                                                                                                   repo name
Artifactory-Local                                                                                                         Artifactory-Local

Thanks,

Hm, I don’t understand this result (no result). It can see the higher version but doesn’t choose it.

If you confirm it doesn’t happen with dnf4 on fedora:latest (38), then I suggest you report this to dnf5.
