Bug Description

Paweł Muszyński <email address hidden> reported:

upgrade device-mapper

I device-mapper-1.02.23-2.i686
D cryptsetup-0.2-1.pre1.7.i686, e2fsprogs-1.40.4-4.i686,
D fsck-1.40.4-4.i686, libcom_err-1.40.4-4.i686, libuuid-1.40.4-4.i686,
D lilo-22.7.3-2.i686, lvm2-2.02.28-2.i686, vserver-packages-3-1.noarch
R cryptsetup-0.2-1.pre1.6.i686, device-mapper-1.01.05-1.i686,
R e2fsprogs-1.40.4-1.i686, fsck-1.40.4-1.i686, libcom_err-1.40.4-1.i686,
R libuuid-1.40.4-1.i686, lilo-22.7.3-1.i686, lvm2-2.01.15-2.i686

It seems some package marks vserver-packages and that might be the cause.

Can you check if current/installed poldek config includes the following?

ignore = vserver-packages

recent poldek-0.21-0.20070703.00.20 (from ac-updates) does have:
'ignore = vserver-packages'

So the only possible solution is to upgrade poldek first. The problem itself is caused by vserver-packages providing fake parts of the system that a vserver installation does not need. Poldek sees this and tries to be smart, installing vserver-packages instead of the real components.

But I think poldek should show me, that it will uninstall dev package...

if you're installing from rescuecd and rescuecd poldek does not have ignore directive the rcd should be fixed.

however i've heard that if you add more packages to install set then poldek considers other packages than vserver-packages. so add something to installset that vserver-packages doesn't Provide:

$ q vserver-packages --provides
vserver-packages-0:3-1
dev = 2.9.0-19
fsck
iproute2
blockdev
login
lvm2
mingetty
module-init-tools
mount = 2.12
vserver-packages = 0:3-1
