Subject: [Test-Announce] Urgent F21 testing request: libhif and PackageKit
Hi, folks!
We recently found out that there were some significant problems with PackageKit and things
that use it (GNOME Software, Apper, gnome-
packagekit...) in Fedora 21, since the release of libhif-0.1.7 as an update shortly after
F21 came out. The initial bug people noticed was offline updates failing to work, but in
subsequent testing we found that regular package install and remove operations could cause
crashes in PackageKit-based apps and it was possible for the PackageKit database to be
corrupted.
It would be great if folks could, as a matter of urgency, test this
update:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/PackageKit-1.0.4-1.fc21,libhif-
0.1.8-1.fc21
Please install the updated packages, reboot (or at least restart the packagekit service),
run 'pkcon repair' as root, reboot again, and then test regular use of GNOME
Software and pkcon as much as possible - try installing and removing packages, running
offline updates, and so on. If your package set is up to date you can try downgrading a
package in order to test offline updates - try 'yum downgrade devassistant', for
instance, if you have it installed, then check for updates in GNOME Software.
As the bugs were pretty serious we'd like to release the fix as soon as possible, but
at the same time we want to make sure we tested it thoroughly.
Thanks folks! And thanks a lot to Richard Hughes for working to fix this quickly, and
Kamil for doing a lot of testing on it.
