The new patch solving this issue can be found here: http://tracker.labix.org/issue62 If I am not wrong, this bug should be assigned to Cristoph Thiel (SuSE developer)
Let's give it a try...
Can you please verify if your smart package has this change, by calling rpm -q --changelog smart Wed Jan 18 15:06:39 CET 2006 - cthiel@suse.de - updated smart-YaST2.diff
Mauricio told me: ===================================================================== Actually either Pascal Bleser (Guru's RPMS) and Cristoph Thiel (SuSE developer) are applying this patch against their packages (the one on Beta3 already has the YaST2 channel support, THE OLD ONE). ===================================================================== and pointed me to that patch. server:~ # rpm -q --changelog smart * Sun Feb 05 2006 - cthiel@suse.de - fix requires (added python-xml) * Wed Jan 25 2006 - mls@suse.de - converted neededforbuild to BuildRequires * Wed Jan 18 2006 - cthiel@suse.de - updated smart-YaST2.diff * Wed Jan 11 2006 - cthiel@suse.de - make sure not to package cElementTree, because we use the system one anyway * Thu Jan 05 2006 - cthiel@suse.de - added smart-YaST2.diff: experimental support for YaST2 repositories by Mauricio Teixeira * Wed Dec 21 2005 - cthiel@suse.de - update to version 0.41 - removed smart-trunk.diff * Wed Dec 21 2005 - cthiel@suse.de - fix requires * Tue Nov 22 2005 - cthiel@suse.de - added directory /etc/smart to filelist * Tue Nov 22 2005 - cthiel@suse.de - branched smart-gui - added distro.py - added desktop file - added patch to the protectedread code from SVN (smart-trunk.diff) * Wed Nov 02 2005 - cthiel@suse.de - added various patches * Mon Oct 17 2005 - cthiel@suse.de - fix a "TypeError: unsubscriptable object" with "exotic" packages * Sun Oct 16 2005 - cthiel@suse.de - initial package (version 0.40), based on the work of Pascal Bleser <pascal.bleser@skynet.be>
You'r right -- I'v just updated the patch to match the upstream version. Many thanks! Mon Feb 13 15:48:56 CET 2006 - cthiel@suse.de - updated smart-YaST2.diff (fixes #149845) I'm building packages for testing right now and will put them onto ftp.suse.com soon. Stay tuned.
Updated packages have been uploaded to ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/cthiel/10.1-beta/
THe package was updated but no the version number. Imposible to upgrade. Had to uninstall old version, install new one. Seems to work right.
Great. Many thanks for testing. (The version number has been raised on rebuild for the next beta already.)
