Fedora 23 - Packages issue

[Wayne Workman]

I’m on r6565 and in this particular instance, Fedora 23 Server x86 and installing fresh, but the installer says it’s skipping all of the packages. For example, httpd:

* Skipping package: httpd.....................................(Does not exist)

However, I can install these packages manually, I can ping both domain names and ip addresses, and my Internet connection is pretty good.

Anything useful in the install error logs? Please run dnf list --enablerepo=remi httpd. What do you see?

[Wayne Workman]

dnf list --enablerepo=remi httpd
Error: Unknown repo: 'remi'

The error_logs say the same thing.
I went to the remi RPM site and looked at their configuration wizard. There’s no option for x86

But they have x86 in the full fedora 23 listing. I’ll install it manually and that should clear it up.

[Wayne Workman]

Yes, installing the remi RPM manually fixed it.

[Sebastian Roth]

Alright, thanks! But how are we going to fix this in the installer??

[Tom Elliott]

@Wayne-Workman There’s no option for x86 because the same repo covers both archs.

[Wayne Workman]

Tom’s right, there wasn’t a arch specification in the command to install the RPM. But for whatever reason the repo didn’t install on my box via the installer.

[Sebastian Roth]

@Tom-Elliott Is this going to fix the issue?

[Tom Elliott]

No, all that does ensure we’re aware of the packages that are already installed, otherwise it forget’s to check the packages.
