Troubleshooting

"Problem: nothing provides X needed by Y" when adding packages in ARM chroot

It may come from a broken version of zypper/libzypp in the chroot, which do not see noarch packages. This problem was reported with zypper 1.5.3 and libzypp 8.12.1. We suggest you to update your zypper version to 1.6+. For convenience, we backported zypper 1.6.15 and libzypp 9.10.2 to Meego 1.2.0.

Zypper 1.6.15 installation

First add our repository to your chroot's zypper configuration file:

obslight addRepoInChRoot --projectLocalName $ProjectName --url http://repo.pub.meego.com/home:/fvennetier:/zypper-backport/MeeGo_1.2.0_standard/ --alias "Zypper_1.6.15_backport"

Then go to the chroot and update zypper:

obslight goToChRoot --projectLocalName $ProjectName
 # zypper update zypper
 # exit
