Upgrading to Fedora 19 (continued)

(continued from here)

Which is perfect and we're at FC19 with RPM and glibc and libdb.  Now time to see if yum works so we try and get the FC19 repos this time to complete this job.  First we cleanup the old rpm's with yum clean all which worked perfectly.  Next check free space:

 [root@moto yum]# du –max-depth=4|sort -nrk1|head -n 10
4377344 .
2627140 ./updates
2489928 ./updates/packages
1708940 ./fedora
1468708 ./fedora/packages
202024  ./fedora/gen
114036  ./updates/gen
25960   ./rpmfusion-free-updates
21352   ./rpmfusion-free-updates/packages
6896    ./rpmfusion-free
[root@moto yum]# yum clean all

Next check free space on /var since that is where the FC19 repos will be downloaded:

[root@moto yum]# df -m /var
Filesystem     1M-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb6           9813  2023      7290  22% /var
[root@moto yum]#

 

Now I also check that the rpmlib (librpm.so.3) also has the right string from the error that was plaging us earlier:

 

[root@moto yum]# strings /usr/lib/librpmio.so.3|grep -i CheckUnifiedSystemdir
[root@moto yum]# strings /usr/lib/librpm.so.3|grep -i CheckUnifiedSystemdir
rpmlib(X-CheckUnifiedSystemdir)
[root@moto yum]#

 

And it does so filesystem and setupd would or should be satisfied in this update (hopefully).  Next run the yum upgrader:

 

yum –releasever=19 distro-sync

 

And let's hope this time it get's further along.  Deleting a few RPM's the system complains about certainly helps along the way to also clean up the system (As usual, we can get them later):

 

[root@moto yum]# rpm -e clutter-1.8.4-2.fc16.i686 gnome-color-manager-3.2.4-1.fc16.i686 cheese-libs-3.2.2-1.fc16.i686 pyclutter-1.3.2-2.fc15.i686 clutter-gesture-0.0.2-2.fc13.i686 libmash-0.1.0-2.fc16.i686 gnome-shell-3.2.2.1-1.fc16.i686 libmx-1.4.1-1.fc16.i686 mutter-3.2.2-1.fc16.i686 rhythmbox-2.90.1-17.git20110927.fc16.i686 clutter-gst-1.4.4-1.fc16.i686 clutter-gtk010-0.10.8-5.fc16.i686 clutter-gtk-1.0.4-1.fc16.i686 gthumb-2.14.4-1.fc16.i686 totem-3.2.1-2.fc16.i686 gnome-settings-daemon-3.2.3-1.fc16.i686 caribou-0.4.1-3.fc16.i686  control-center-3.2.3-1.fc16.i686 orca-3.2.1-2.fc16.i686 gnome-bluetooth-3.2.2-1.fc16.i686 gnome-bluetooth-libs-3.2.2-1.fc16.i686 bluez-4.96-3.fc16.i686 pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-0.9.23-1.fc16.i686

But we get this sort of error, which is simple to resolve:

 GPG Keys are configured as: file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-i386

 

And we update the fedora-release rpm's like this:

 

[root@moto F13toF18]# ls -altri fedora-release*19*

Then we rerun yum updater from above.  We will run yum update instead or yum update rpm.  The –releaseserver=19 pulled FC 18 packages for some reason.  We use yum because of this (This is normal since we h a c k e d the RPM install and did that manually):

And we wait for the 1.1GB of files.  After some minor conflict resolutions, we we need to look at some resolutions for rpm, filesystem and systemd:

Some of the complaints can be unlinked:

 

[root@moto F13toF18]# ls -al /usr/lib/libcolord.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Jul 19 12:39 /usr/lib/libcolord.so.1 -> libcolord.so.1.0.11
[root@moto F13toF18]# unlink /usr/lib/libcolord.so.1
[root@moto F13toF18]#

 

But let's restore the link above and do this instead.  Copy the old files of a package + the linkeage and overall setup / size like this:

 

[root@moto colord.fc16]# ls -altri
total 36
1685047 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root  4096 Aug  9 14:38 var
1684514 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root  4096 Aug  9 14:38 usr
1684509 dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root  4096 Aug  9 20:25 lib
1684505 drwxr-xr-x 4 root root  4096 Aug 10 08:20 etc
1653312 drwxr-xr-x 9 root root  4096 Aug 10 09:33 ..
2093063 -rw-r–r– 1 root root 10463 Aug 10 09:49 colord.fc16.config
1684504 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root  4096 Aug 10 09:49 .
[root@moto colord.fc16]#

 

Using these commands:

 

mkdir colord.fc16; cd colord.fc16;
ls -altri $(rpm -ql colord-0.1.21-1.fc16.i686) > colord.fc16.config
cp -ip –parents $(rpm -ql colord-0.1.21-1.fc16.i686) .

 

so in case when re remove the package from the DB using

 

rpm -e –noscripts –justdb –nodeps colord-0.1.21-1.fc16.i686 we can restore the files using sash.  We just need to get the yum installer proceed and replace existing files so we want to just remove stuff from the DB and NOT the filesystem:

 

[root@moto colord.fc16]# rpm -e –noscripts –justdb colord-0.1.21-1.fc16.i686
error: Failed dependencies:
        libcolord.so.1 is needed by (installed) gtk3-3.2.4-1.fc16.i686
        colord is needed by (installed) foomatic-4.0.8-8.fc16.i686
[root@moto colord.fc16]# rpm -e –noscripts –justdb –nodeps colord-0.1.21-1.fc16.i686
[root@moto colord.fc16]#
[root@moto colord.fc16]#
[root@moto colord.fc16]# ls -altri /usr/lib/colord-sensors/libcolord_sensor_huey.so
4735235 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 22020 May 22  2012 /usr/lib/colord-sensors/libcolord_sensor_huey.so
[root@moto colord.fc16]#

 

And one of the issues reported should be good without having anything broken in the interim:

 

  file /usr/lib/girepository-1.0/Colord-1.0.typelib from install of colord-libs-1.0.2-1.fc19.i686 conflicts with file from package colord-0.1.21-1.fc16.i686
  file /usr/lib/libcolord.so.1 from install of colord-libs-1.0.2-1.fc19.i686 conflicts with file from package colord-0.1.21-1.fc16.i686

 

And the above error is gone.  Now to do the same with the other packages:

 

db4-utils-4.8.30-3.fc15.i686
systemd-units-37-25.fc16.i686

 

We'll use slightly modified lines for systemd:

 

/bin/cp -Rp –parents $(rpm -ql systemd-units-37-25.fc16.i686) .
rpm -e –noscripts –justdb –nodeps systemd-units-37-25.fc16.i686

 

But unfortunately we got a bunch of these:

 

uucp-1.07-26.fc16.i686 has missing requires of systemd-units
uucp-1.07-26.fc16.i686 has missing requires of systemd-units
wicd-common-1.7.0-15.fc16.noarch has missing requires of systemd-units
wicd-common-1.7.0-15.fc16.noarch has missing requires of systemd-units

 

So we restore the files from the new filesystem FC19 rpm to see what it needs:

 

[root@moto packages]# pwd
/var/cache/yum/updates/packages
[root@moto packages]# cd filesystem
[root@moto filesystem]# ls -altri

[root@moto filesystem]#

 

Then seeing how it now links certain critical folders together now vs the old way, we do some adjustments by running rsync then linking ourselves (we'll use sash if things get messed up) up to the /usr ones:

 

[root@moto lib]#
[root@moto lib]# du -sm .
3065    .
[root@moto lib]#
[root@moto lib]# ls -altri|wc -l
5538
[root@moto lib]#
[root@moto lib]#
[root@moto lib]# pwd
/usr/lib
[root@moto lib]# rsync -avhr /lib/ ./
sent 300.34M bytes  received 184.49K bytes  6.20M bytes/sec

 

total size is 300.00M  speedup is 1.00
[root@moto lib]#

 

 

Sure enough it breaks and we need to use sash again:

 

[root@moto /]# mv lib lib2
[root@moto /]# ln -s /usr/lib lib
-bash: /bin/ln: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
Segmentation fault
[root@moto /]# sash
Stand-alone shell (version 3.7)
> -ln -s /usr/lib lib

[root@moto /]# ln -s /usr/lib lib-test
[root@moto /]# ls -altri lib
47 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Aug 10 10:39 lib -> /usr/lib
[root@moto /]# ls -altri lib2

 

But in the end the above works.  (Note we can use /usr/bin/rsync because it's in /usr/bin).  We do the same with /sbin and /bin.

 

[root@moto sbin]# pwd
/usr/sbin
[root@moto sbin]# rsync -avh /sbin/ .
sent 24.27M bytes  received 6.06K bytes  9.71M bytes/sec

 

total size is 24.25M  speedup is 1.00

And now that all is linked, installing the new filesystem RPM goes without a hitch:

 

[root@moto filesystem]# rpm -Uvh filesystem-3.2-13.fc19.i686.rpm

And we try to update now to see if that made a difference:

And it did!  Good, so we're off to an upgrade.  ( Perhaps we could have done this step earlier but we could not have until RPM got updated anyway as we did.  :/  ).  And we got a successful complete:

 

There are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction, or "yum history redo last", first to finish them. If that doesn't work you'll have to try removing/installing packages by hand (maybe package-cleanup can help).

 

Complete!

Now to do a full update.  We'll now try to upgrade with fedup.  We tried this before but it didn't work due to the substantial fundamental changes beetween the fedora versions.

 

fedup –network 19

 

And we're off.  After it downloads stuff, it's time to reboot.  Sure enough, after a reboot we're at FC19, the GUI works, aside from some networking issues, but we are back in business.  The rest of the errors can be resolved with some basic OS tweaking which we'll leave for other posts.

 

Cheers,
TK
