Hi to all After system update (1.0.5.16), I decided to update my apps (hebrew vkb). I changed only one file (layouts-he.conf) and number of version in SPEC. New package created without any problem, BUT I saw this line in output, that I don't remember on previous system version (1.0.4.20):

warning: Could not canonicalize hostname: Jolla

Full output you can see here: http://pastie.org/9076079

Now the problems: 1. Installation of new version failed and show me this output:

[root@Jolla rpmbuild]# pkcon install-local -y /home/nemo/Downloads/hebrewvkbnew-2ar-3lang-0.8-1.armv7hl.rpm

but if I check which package installed it show me both packages although it the same files and folders

  1. Trying to uninstall them and I get errors again: pkcon remove -y hebrewvkbnew-2ar-3lang

More than one package matches: 1. hebrewvkbnew-2ar-3lang-0.8-1.armv7hl [installed] 2. hebrewvkbnew-2ar-3lang-0.7-1.armv7hl [installed]

Please choose the correct package: 1

Fatal error: Specified path '/var/tmp/TmpDir.s52JJz' is not a directory: dir:///var/tmp/TmpDir.s52JJz

Only after reboot it gave me possibility to uninstall

  1. When both of them uninstalled, my new package installed without any problem and errors. Also I can reinstall the same version without any problem.

  2. Tried create another new version and install over the already installed (new) version and also get the same errors

Some advice ? Maybe I should add something new to the SPEC file because of this error ?:

I do not much about installing rpm packages. But:

"Fatal error: Installation aborted by user [root@Jolla rpmbuild]#"

You may need either (or even both):

  • Allow for the installation of untrusted software
  • Root access (i.e. developer mode and set a password; in Terminal you then may have to launch the sudo command). For more information, look here for the Wiki or HowTo for developer mode and Terminal.

I know this... installation of untrusted software activated from previous system update, And like you can see from outputs I have root access without any problem. Also, although this message "Fatal error: Installation aborted by user " the package itself installed, see outputs :(

Sorry, I overlooked, who was posting (and that probably you are talking about your own app).

Nonetheless: When gaining root access, you usually login as user "nemo" (e.g. ssh nemo@192.168.xxx.yyy). Your logs show "root@Jolla". Could this be the problem?

jgr ( 2014-04-14 01:16:19 +0300 )edit

no, it's not a problem... All version of my packages I did this way. The problem starts only after last system update. Also, when you do: devel-su [enter] -> your root pass -> you will get "root@Jolla"

[nemo@Jolla ~]$ devel-su
Password:
[root@Jolla nemo]#

Ok, finally I found how to fix my problem :D It come from my spec file from previous version (see first post) I just removed %preun section, changed a little %post and %postun to this:

%post
if [ $1 = 1 ]; then
    // Do stuff specific for first install
echo "It's first time install"
fc-cache -f
killall maliit-server
killall jolla-messages
killall jolla-email
killall jolla-notes
killall jolla-clock
else
if [ $1 = 2 ]; then
    // Do stuff specific to upgrades
killall maliit-server
fi
fi

%postun
if [ $1 = 0 ]; then
    // Do stuff specific to uninstalls
rm -rf /usr/share/maliit/plugins/com/jolla/custom-he
killall maliit-server
else
if [ $1 = 1 ]; then
    // Do stuff specific to upgrades
echo "It's just upgrade"
fi
fi

I still can't update from old version, but it because of old version... User just need to uninstall the old version and install new one. And now from the new version it can update to the next new version without any problem until I'll do other nonsense :D

Always end your %post etc. sections last command with " || :". Otherwise if e.g. killall in %post section returned 1 because there is no application with this name running, scriplet will be considered as failed. Maybe it results in transaction being aborted...
