Manually downloading the drpm, and using applydeltarpm manually might show some useful information as to 'why' reconstruction is failing<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/26/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">

<br>for each package. When there is a deltarpm available, it then checks<br>what's called the "deltarpm sequence" against your system to see if the<br>deltarpm will apply cleanly. If the deltarpm will apply cleanly, it
<br>then changes certain package information, in this case to<br>lucidlife-0.9.1_0.9.1-2.fc6_1.fc6.i386.drpm. Yum then proceeds to<br>download the drpm (thinking it's the rpm). After yum downloads all the<br>packages, presto kicks in again and reassembles the rpm from the drpm,
<br>and reverts the package information back to the original. And, finally,<br>at the end, it writes out statistics to /var/log/presto.log.<br><br>So, what has happened here is that the lucidlife drpm looked like it<br>would apply cleanly the first time around, but, after being downloaded
<br>didn't apply cleanly. A bug in the code gave you that ugly error rather<br>than the "nice" error message it was supposed to...I'll fix it in 0.2.8,<br>which should be out in a half-hour or so. The second time your ran it,
<br>it realized there was a problem and downloaded the full rpm.<br><br>I would really love to know if you've done anything with lucidlife,<br>changed any files before upgrading to the latest version? It would help<br>
me work out why we hit this error in the first place.<br><br>Jonathan<br><br>--<br>fedora-devel-list mailing list<br><a href="mailto:fedora-devel-list@redhat.com">fedora-devel-list@redhat.com</a><br><a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list">
