| Summary | 0000656: ELevate-NG 9→10: PES Split event (id 20203) removes samba/sssd stack — discards available AlmaLinux 10 samba-common-libs | ||||
| Description | Upgrading AlmaLinux 9.8 → 10 with ELevate-NG on an x86_64_v2 host. leapp drops the samba/sssd stack during the upgrade. The trigger is a Package Evolution (PES) Split event that makes leapp discard samba-common-libs — even though AlmaLinux 10 does ship it — and everything that depends on it cascades out. Environment - Source: AlmaLinux 9.8, target AlmaLinux 10.2 (x86_64_v2) - ELevate-NG repo: https://repo.almalinux.org/elevate/testing/elevate-ng-el9.repo - leapp-upgrade-el9toel10 0.24.0, leapp-data-almalinux-x86_64_v2-0.13-6.el9.20260622 Symptom — verified by rpm -qa before/after a real upgrade. These are removed with no replacement: samba-common-libs samba-client-libs samba-common cifs-utils sssd sssd-ad sssd-ipa sssd-common-pac Root cause pes-events.json has an action: 4 (Split): samba-common-libs → samba-core-libs + samb The leapp log confirms it applies this: Applying event 20203 (SPLIT): replacing samba-common-libs with samba-core-libs, samba-ndr-libs Because of that event, leapp treats samba-common-libs as replaced and excludes it from the target set. But: 1. samba-core-libs / samba-ndr-libs don't exist in AlmaLinux 10 — so nothing replaces it, and 2. samba-common-libs itself does exist in AlmaLinux 10 and is perfectly installable: # AlmaLinux 10.2 BaseOS (x86_64_v2) samba-common-libs 4.23.5-107.el10_2 # present (also -109) samba-core-libs → not found samba-ndr-libs → not found So leapp discards an available package for nonexistent successors. On el10, samba-common-libs is a hard dependof much of the stack, so the exclusion cas samba-common-libs ← excluded by the split (root cause) ↑ Requires samba-client-libs → removed ↑ Requires sssd-ad, sssd-ipa → removed cifs-utils (via libwbclient → samba-client-libs) → removed samba-common, sssd, sssd-common-pac → remo Why the event exists: the split is real upStream 10 with samba 4.24.3(samba-core-libs/samba-ndr-libs 4.24.3-100.el10). But AlmaLinux 10.2 still ships pre-split samba 4.23.5, so the Stream-derived PES event fires against a target that hasn't made the split. Question: what's the recommended handling? It seems the samba Split event should be gated/held in leapp-data-almalinux until AlmaLinux 10 actually ships the split (samba 4.24.3+), so leapp keeps the existing samba-common-libs instead of dropping it. ake a Split event conditional on the targetpackage actually being present? | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | # 1. AlmaLinux 9.x host with the samba/sssd stack installed # (sssd-ad / sssd-ipa are what pull in samba-client-libs) dnf install -y sssd-ad sssd-ipa cifs-utils samba-common # 2. Add the ELevate-NG repo curl -fsS -o /etc/yum.repos.d/elevate-ng.repo \ https://repo.almalinux.org/elevate/testing/elevate-ng-el9.repo # 3. Install the NG el9->el10 tooling + target data # (x86_64_v2 shown; on a v3 CPU use leapp-data-almalinux instead) dnf install -y --allowerasing leapp-upgrade leapp-data-almalinux-x86_64_v2 # 4. (x86_64_v2 only) stage the prebuilt v2 target userspace mkdir -p /etc/leapp/files/rootfs && cd /etc/leapp/files/rootfs curl -LJO https://github.com/AlmaLinux/container-images/raw/refs/heads/10/default/amd64_v2/almalinux-10-default-amd64_v2.tar.xz # 5. Run the upgrade leapp preupgrade leapp upgrade reboot # 6. After it lands on AlmaLinux 10, check the stack: rpm -q samba-common-libs samba-client-libs samba-common cifs-utils \ sssd sssd-ad sssd-ipa sssd-common-pac # -> all report "not installed" Expected: the samba/sssd stack is upgraded to el10 (AlmaLinux 10 ships all of these). Actual: all of the above are removed. | ||||
