I just installed Mageia 6 and tried to add some programs and finish updating, the following message. I tried several times to reinstall but keep getting this message. ---->

Code: Select all
The "drakrpm" program has crashed with the following error:

  <data>:1:28Expected a string. at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.2/Gtk3.pm line 988.
  Perl's trace:
  drakbug::bug_handler() called from /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.2/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/Glib/Object/Introspection.pm:67

To submit a bug report, click on the report button. 
This will open a web browser window on Bugzilla where you'll find a form to fill in.  The information displayed above will be transferred to that server
It would be very useful to attach to your report the output of the following command: 'lspcidrake -v'.

Any advise will be extremely appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You do realise that Mageia 6 is still in development and that you are therefore in fact running cauldron:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Cauldron

IIRC if you execute
Code: Select all
urpmi --auto-update
in a root terminal then a fixed version of rpmdrake will be installed.
