Hi there,
I'm doing a bit of spring (er, winter) cleaning and found that I hadn't
putback this wad.
We originally talked about it here:
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/pkg-discuss/2011-September/027917.html
and it got a LGTM at the time.
There was a question as to why it was an error to rename to an obsolete
package. This would spot the following (somewhat zany) case, where we
try to do a fresh install of a now-renamed package, and that renamed
package erroneously depended on an obsolete package:
$ pkg -R image install an-old-name
Creating Plan -
pkg install: No matching version of an-old-name can be installed:
Reject:
pkg://opensolaris.org/[email protected],5.11-0.141:20120627T021008Z
Reason: All acceptable versions of 'require' dependency on
pkg:/system/obsolete are obsolete
working around 7180019, pkglint would spot this as:
$ pkglint mf\-rename mf\-obsolete
Lint engine setup...
Starting lint run...
ERROR pkglint.manifest002.5 package
pkg://opensolaris.org/[email protected],5.11-0.141 was renamed to an
obsolete package pkg://opensolaris.org/system/[email protected],5.11
The webrev hasn't changed at all since we looked at it originally, I've
just merged and migrated the bugid - that's at:
https://cr.opensolaris.org/action/browse/pkg/timf/pkglint_fix_dep_obsolete/webrev
cheers,
tim
