http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 Summary: Problem installing dmd-2.061-0.fedora.x86_64.rpm on Fedora 18 Product: D Version: D2 Platform: x86_64 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: installer AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com ReportedBy: pwil3058 bigpond.net.au 16:55:51 PST --- Trying to install dmd-2.061-0.fedora.x86_64.rpm on Fedora 18 fails with the following error message: Transaction Check Error: file / from install of dmd-2.061-0.x86_64 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.1-2.fc18.x86_64 file /usr/bin from install of dmd-2.061-0.x86_64 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.1-2.fc18.x86_64 file /usr/lib from install of dmd-2.061-0.x86_64 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.1-2.fc18.x86_64 file /usr/lib64 from install of dmd-2.061-0.x86_64 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.1-2.fc18.x86_64 I believe this is caused by yum/rpm being more fussy about such things and should be fixable by a small change to the spec file used to build the rpm. Basically, don't list directories in %files (only files) unless the directory is exclusive to your package and will be deliberately empty. I tried using yum's --tolerant switch but the installation still failed. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 15:24:07 PST --- That is indeed the script that builds the rpm. A first inspection indicates that removal of line 283: find $TEMPDIR/$DMDDIR/ -type d | sed 's:'$TEMPDIR'/'$DMDDIR':%dir ":' | sed 's:$:":' >> dmd.spec would fix the problem. In the meantime, I'm experimenting with "rpmrebuild -e dmd" (and removing the effect of the above line) on a system where I already had dmd installed before I upgraded to Fedora 18 (as judging from that scripts path it's not in the zip tarball). -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 18:02:19 PST --- Unfortunately package rebuilt using rpmrebuild fails to install due to a digest mismatch which I think is a rpmrebuild error. However, I've now discovered a dmd.spec file at github and notice that the file https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/installer/blob/master/linux/dmd_rpm.sh does not appear to exist in the master branch so modifying it would be fruitless. I will checkout the code from github and see if I can figure out how to build an rpm from that and then try to fix the problem. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 18:15:56 PST --- Well, that's funny. After logging in to github (rather than being anonymous) I get to see a different set of files (including dmd_rpm.sh albeit in a different directory than that quoted and dmd.spec is no longer there. Otherwise the plan stays the same. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 16:56:43 PST --- Created an attachment (id=1191) A patch to add "rpmpkg" sub directory to "installer" repositry at github. This is a patch to add a new directory (rpmpkg) to the D-Programming-Language/installer repository at github. It provides a mechanism for creating binary rpm packages from the binary package archives (*.pkg.tar.xz) at www.digitalmars.com on any system with rpmbuild and friends installed. To create i386 and x86_64 binary rpms for the 2.061 release just type: make inside the new directory. Provided there are no radical changes to the base install directories (e.g. /usr/bin, /usr/lib and so on) and /etc/dmd.conf and /etc/bash_completion.d/dmd remain the only configuration files this process should work for other versions/releases by passing the version/release to make e.g.: make VERSION=2.062 RELEASE=1 would build rpms for version 2.062 release 1 (provided, of course, that the requisite binary package archives are in place at www.digitalmars.com). -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 17:02:17 PST --- the reason for the just uploaded patch (instead of results for modifying dmd_rpm.sh) is that this is the solution I arrived at after being unable to test changes to dmd_rpm.sh due to it only working on debian and my attempts to install on a virtual machine failing (the debian install dvd will not boot). -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

However, after some bugfixes, the Makefile and dmd.spec files in my first patch build an rpm that installs OK. A patch containing the bugfixes has been uploaded. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 22:03:09 PST --- I'll do that as soon as I figure out how :-) I'll merge the two patches into one. In the meantime, it looks like I may be getting a successful debian installation using a different (network) boot iso so I'll (hopefully) be able to check the problem with dmd_rpm.sh. BTW it looks like whoever is writing the rpm spec files is using outdated documentation as the files no longer have to be as complex as those being defined. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 14:19:16 PST --- Yes, I know. I'm not a git user as I prefer Mercurial which is similar but with a much better designed user interface. I have books and other documentation for git, however, so I should be able to figure it out. I'm still having trouble getting Debian going. My latest attempt refused to boot after installation because of a "pointer" error (whatever that is) so I'm trying again. (So far I'm very unimpressed by Debian.) BTW the rpmsrc directory in installer hasn't been touched for 2 years. Would it be a waste of my time to look at resurrecting it? -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
