Description Steffen Winterfeldt 2007-05-07 15:59:25 UTC
Some seems to have 'optimized' it away. It causes yast to break at
the end of the installation. See screenshot.

yast complaining about missing fsck.xfs
Comment 2 Andreas Jaeger 2007-05-08 06:53:27 UTC
Do you have an XFS filesystem?

xfsprogs should be installed automatically by libzypp:
- added Supplements: filesystem(xfs), so that xfsprogs is installed
  when an xfs filesystem is used (fate #301966)

Please add YaST logfiles.
Comment 3 Steffen Winterfeldt 2007-05-08 08:47:29 UTC
Sure I have.

Comment 5 Andreas Jaeger 2007-05-08 10:43:02 UTC
This is therefore an libzypp bug
Comment 6 Stefan Schubert 2007-05-11 08:27:26 UTC
The problem is that noone will be informed that the dependency has been changed
dynamically.

Comment 10 Per Jessen 2007-07-25 13:06:03 UTC
Just a quick comment to say this problem is also present in Alpha6  (for fsck.jfs)
Comment 11 Stefan Schubert 2007-07-25 13:51:32 UTC
set to critical
Comment 12 Stefan Schubert 2007-07-26 11:38:29 UTC
Michl, pleease reassign this bug to myself, if you have added a MD5 sum 
machanism in the repo in order to provide a possibility for checking repo 
changes.
Comment 13 Michael Andres 2007-08-02 16:36:17 UTC
Changed /etc/sysconfig/storage USED_FS_LIST and changed pool content are now
propagated to the solver.

Now the solver has to discard any cached results.
Comment 14 Stefan Schubert 2007-08-09 11:30:39 UTC
I have changed the solver too and tested via UI

Comment 16 Mario Guzman 2007-08-10 04:53:05 UTC
Tested Best 1 and this is still a problem.
Comment 17 Mario Guzman 2007-08-10 04:54:50 UTC
More complete: Tested Beta 1 and this is still a problem. fsck messages failed due to xprogs missing. Should have been installed since root was formatted xfs.
Comment 18 Andreas Jaeger 2007-08-10 05:14:30 UTC
comment #14 implies that it was fixed only after Beta1 - it will be in Beta2.
Comment 19 Steffen Winterfeldt 2007-08-24 13:11:47 UTC
xfspogs are still not installed in beta2. Only progress is that
mkinitrd no longer dies when it's missing.
Comment 20 Stefan Schubert 2007-08-24 15:33:17 UTC
xfspogs only supplements filesystem(xfs) but noone calls an establish of that package. Freshens are not supported by RPM. So we will have to find another
solution
Comment 21 Mario Guzman 2007-08-24 18:47:49 UTC
This is a serious problem for me in beta2. There is another problem with the lan setup that requires a reboot in the middle of install and restart the install where you leave off(I am opening another problem report). But there is no soft shutdown, the only way is to hit reset. This means that since the filesystem was not shut down properly it should be checked during the next boot. But this does not happen since xfsprog is missing. FYI, I ran several tests when I converted from OS2 to Linux and XFS was clearly the fastest on my machine which is why I use it. Never had a problem so far and I like XFS until something better comes along.

Comment 23 Stefan Schubert 2007-08-27 11:54:21 UTC
Additional to comment #12. The solver generate an establish call for all resolvables which has filesystemcaps if there is not a valid result from a
former solver run available. This covers:
- Initial solver run
- Changing of filesystem whithin a workflow, cause the solver results will
  be reset if the filesystem dependencies have been changed (comment #12)
