Bug Description

Binary package hint: sblim-cmpi-base

The sblim-cmpi-base is missing a library but installs symbolic links for it:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 2010-03-03 15:17 libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so -> libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so.0.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 2010-03-03 15:17 libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so.0 -> libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so.0.0.0

The file libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so.0.0.0 does not exist. This causes problem with class names showing up in an ecn query but not avabile for ei:

$ wbemecn -nl 'http://localhost:5988/root/cimv2:CIM_RunningOS'
localhost:5988/root/cimv2:Linux_RunningOS
$ wbemei -nl 'http://localhost:5988/root/cimv2:CIM_RunningOS'
*
* wbemei: Cim: (1) CIM_ERR_FAILED: CBEnumInstanceNames( _broker, ctx, op, rc)
*

Package:
$ sudo apt-file search libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so
sblim-cmpi-base: /usr/lib/cmpi/libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so
sblim-cmpi-base: /usr/lib/cmpi/libcmpiOSBase_OperatingSystemProvider.so.0

Release: 9.10

Is this available for Lucid 10.04 LTS as well? I can't seem to find it...

Thanks

By the way I downloaded the package from Maverick and it works just fine:

wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/49917517/sblim-cmpi-base_1.6.0-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i sblim-cmpi-base_1.6.0-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb

But it would be better to have it in the regular 10.04 repo, specially since it's an LTS version.

Thanks for the fix

Olivier

The fix was only pushed to maverick, not backported to Lucid. I'll see what I can do.

Olivier, you can definitely handle this yourself up to the point of upload into 'lucid-proposed', for which you'll need a sponsor.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates

Step one is to nominate it for lucid. If you're not able to complete the other steps, a developer eventually will.

Hi Clint,

I've tried to follow the procedure, but I'm confused because it's basically been fixed for Maverick, which should solve 1 and 2, and when trying to "Nominate for release" under 3 I can't find Lucid in the list. Am I missing something?

Thanks

Olivier.

Olivier, thanks for moving forward with that.

It looks like somebody already accepted it for lucid. I'd guess Thierry did so.

So the next step would be to fill in the SRU information in the description, and attach a patch per the instructions. I would encourage you to do so. Please feel free to email me directly if you need assistance with any of the steps.
