Mageia forum

Hello all. I run Mageia 2 x86_64. I was thinking about upgrading to Mageia 3, and followed some instructions that turned out to not be so good. To make a long story short, the upgrade did not work, I decided I would just stick with Mageia 2 for now. Now when I try to install many packages from the Mageia repo, I get this:

Code: Select all

rpmlib(X-CheckUnifiedSystemdir) is needed by filesystem-2.1.9-20.mga3.x86_64


Is there any way to fix this issue? Thanks.

Which instructions did you follow? Please people, at least provide the information to others to maybe reproduce the issue.

Please have a look at the second bullet point from the Errata https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_3_Err ... ade_Issues
and in the release notes are the three ways of how to upgrade: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_3_Rel ... m_Mageia_2
Which did you choose?

I skipped installing the mageia-prepare-upgrade package. I went ahead and followed the instructions here: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_3_Release_Notes, and upgrade successfully to Mageia 3, and all issues are solved.

Please mark the thread accordingly by editing the topic of the first post and prefix it by [SOLVED], thanks
