Stefan,
Perform a "rpm -q{p}i --provides" on both gnome-libs 1mdk and 2mdk
You'll see that the 1mdk does provide libart_lgpl whereas 2mdk won't
probably provide it (even if the file list contains this file!)
This is due to problems while building the new RPM. Try to monitor the
rebuild of the new RPM and see why the "find provides" probably fails to
complete gracefully..

Oh oh oh... a little panic from van der Eijk again...
I'm starting to feel guilty...

It's even worse...

Something went very wrong on my alpha... the Glibc package it produces
doesn't provide much... hmmm
This is due to problems while building the new RPM. Try to monitor the
rebuild of the new RPM and see why the "find provides" probably fails to
complete gracefully..
Small bit from the glibc buildoutput:
Failed to find Provides:
Provides: glibc-localedata ld.so.2
PreReq: /sbin/ldconfig
Obsoletes: zoneinfo libc-static libc-devel libc-profile libc-headers
linuxthreads gencat locale glibc-localedata

Finding Provides: (using /usr/lib/rpm/find-provides)...
line 532: Dependency tokens must begin with alpha-numeric, '_' or '/': -
first build for 2.0.96
See... I'm feeling _so_ guilty... all of the packages on my alpha have
this
problem... Now, I'm really wondering WTF caused this...

RE: [Cooker] corrupt RPM database, what then?
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Cooker] corrupt RPM database, what then? Maybe there are some RPM experts on the list that can help me out with this one. I beleive I've got a corrupt rpm database on my alpha system (it's happened to me once B4). It now doesn't know much about dependancies anymore, making upgrading packages difficult. ok i got a hack that you can try it out please i don't even know if this works or not do this: make a ftp connection and udmp the rpm files of your intel box to alpha ... of course some alpha specific packages (AFAIK this is only milo) need to be reinstalled if yuouw ant the db to pickup and some you will have to fix e.g. you don't have lilo on your system. (maybe rpm --rebuilddb ??)

Geoffrey, Maybe there are some RPM experts on the list that can help me out with this one. I beleive I've got a corrupt rpm database on my alpha system (it's happened to me once B4). It now doesn't know much about dependancies anymore, making upgrading packages difficult. ok i got a hack that you can try it out please i don't even know if this works or not do this: make a ftp connection and udmp the rpm files of your intel box to alpha ... of course some alpha specific packages (AFAIK this is only milo) need to be reinstalled if yuouw ant the db to pickup and some you will have to fix e.g. you don't have lilo on your system. (maybe rpm --rebuilddb ??) Hmmm... the two boxes are actually quite different. What they have in common is that they both contain (most of) the packages that are needed to build cooker / contrib. My intel is a very recent cooker installation and has 987 (!!) packages installed. My alpha only has 773. Personally I'd either figure out what is really going on or reinstall the box... Thanks anyway, Stefan

Thanks anyway, Stefan
