Summary

0001033: RPM dependency error with perl(Archive::Tar)

Description

Errors started to show up on our nightly builds:

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
perl-Module-Install-0.92-1.el5.rf.noarch from installed has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: perl(Archive::Tar) >= 1.44 is needed by package perl-Module-Install-0.92-1.el5.rf.noarch (installed)
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Archive::Tar) >= 1.44 is needed by package perl-Module-Install-0.92-1.el5.rf.noarch (installed)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Looks upstream since we haven't changed anything.

Notes
(0001605) rbalzard (administrator) 2010-07-20 11:23	Obviously DAG has updated perl-Module-Install but has forgotten to update its dependency perl-Archive-Tar... :( A temporary easy fix is to tell YUM to skip perl-Module-Install by adding the following line in /etc/yum.conf: exclude=perl-Module-Install

(0001610) obilodeau (reporter) 2010-07-22 11:02	Just noticed that our 64 bit nightly doesn't have this problem so I checked if perl-Module-Install is required / used by PacketFence and it's not. So if you ever experience this problem, run: # yum erase perl-Module-Install Which will get rid of perl-Module-Install and perl-Test-Base both of which are not required by PacketFence (currently at least). Ran smoke test suite and they all pass.

(0001886) obilodeau (reporter) 2011-02-25 16:52	just hit the dep problem again while trying to do some Catalyst testing.. this guy has an interesting solution: http://www.imminentweb.com/technologies/yum-complains-about-package-installed-has-depsolving-problems [^]
