Summary0001416: libtool rebuilt for 0001156 not picked up by apt
Descriptionif libtool was rebuilt for gcc 3.4.5, it appears it's not the one being picked up by package ordering in apt:

[root@shuttle ~]# apt-cache policy libtool
libtool:
  Installed: 1.5.6-4.EL4.1.c4.3
  Candidate: 1.5.6-4.EL4.1.1
  Version Table:
     1.5.6-4.EL4.1.1 0
        500 http://apt.platypus.bc.ca [^] i386/centos4/bish pkglist
 *** 1.5.6-4.EL4.1.c4.3 0
        500 http://mirror.centos.org [^] centos/4/apt/i386/os pkglist
        100 RPM Database

It wants to upgrade to the older package, it seems. If a system has gcc installed, libtool cannot then be installed because the 'newest' package available (isn't new, but also) demands an older gcc. 'apt-get build-dep', the only remaining useful feature of apt-get, doesn't work here at all.
Additional Informationsend me a note if my description is so confusing as to be incomprehensible. I'm overtired.

From which repository is this libtool here?

Candidate: 1.5.6-4.EL4.1.1

[root@forge 4]# find . -name "libtool*" | grep -v c4
./sources/libtool-1.5.6.tar.gz

So it's not in one of the CentOS repositories. Are you mixing some local RHEL repository with CentOS ones? Was that machine a RedHat machine at some time? Or do you have something like a hardcoded path in your repo-file?

libtool-1.5.6-4.EL4.1.c4.3 ist the one from CentOS 4.3, CentOS 4.2 had libtool-1.5.6-4.EL4.1 in os and libtool-1.5.6-4.EL4.1.c4 in updates. I cannot find 4.1.1 anywhere.

"So it's not in one of the CentOS repositories."

Actually, the problematic package is probably coming from a local ftp mirror of ftp.linux.ncsu.edu, which still serves packages via FTP. Since the boxes are upgraded from older Centos4, you should find this problem if you upgrade a box from 4.0->4.1->4.2->4.3 .

The EL4.1.1. one is my rebuild of the package for the very problem in question.

I think. I'm on a really busy schedule right now, and I would need time to go over things again to be sure. If I need to defend this bug like a master's thesis, though, just to keep it around, just kill it.

=:)

Probably no need in "defending" the bug.

The input that *you* yourself rebuilt 4.1.1 wasn't really clear from your bug report, that's why I asked.

Cheers,

Ralph
