Description Bart Van Assche 2008-05-21 16:01:01 UTC

This issue can be reproduced as follows:
* Install OpenSUSE 10.3.
* Perform an online update.
* Add the debug repository to the software repositories.
* Try to install glibc-debug.
* Result: yast displays an error message that installing glibc-debug would invalidate the atom glibc-2.6.1-18.3.i586.

This might be caused because the debug RPM's are missing in the repository with online updates (http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/rpm/x86_64/).

I experienced this issue not only on x86_64, but also on ppc.

Provided the requested Yast2 logs.

Comment 5 Ladislav Slezák 2008-05-27 07:48:52 UTC

The problem is that the debug info for the updated glibc package is missing.

The update repo (http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/rpm/x86_64/) contains glibc-2.6.1-18.3.x86_64.rpm while the debug repo (http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/debug) contains glibc-debuginfo-2.6.1-18.x86_64.rpm.

I don't know what's the policy for debug info of updated packages and who is resposible for this problem. Coolo?
