Salt: pecl.install failing when alreadly installed

[josmardias]

It's failing when "mongo" pecl is alreadly installed. But for some reason it's not failing with gearman pecl, just mongo.

I tried with only one, than other, than changing install order...
For now, i have no clue what's going on.

[basepi]

Can you give us some additional information please?

Specifically the version information, and the relevant pieces of the minion's debug log. Thanks!

In Fedora 19

First, i'm getting wrong version installed

$ salt --versions-report
           Salt: 0.15.3
         Python: 2.7.5 (default, Jul  8 2013, 09:48:59)

         PyYAML: 3.10
          PyZMQ: 13.0.0
            ZMQ: 3.2.3

I have no pecl installed, so i highstate with this state:

mongo:
  pecl.installed:
   - version: 1.3.1

gearman:
  pecl.installed:
    - version: 1.1.1

And i get

Worked!

Finaly

So, in both Fedora 19 and Ubuntu 12.04, it's failing to install the right version of the pecl, and it's failing to install the mentioned version when other version is alreadly installed. But it's working fine when the right version is alreadly installed.

[basepi]

When you say you manually installed the correct version, do you mean you used PECL to install that correct version?

[josmardias]

Yes, with -f option, to force the "right" version

[basepi]

Hrm, interesting. My first thought would have been that it couldn't find the specified version and so fell back to a previous version. But if you can install the correct version using PECL, I guess that must be an incorrect assumption.

We'll look into it.

[basepi]

I'm not familiar enough with PECL to know exactly what's going on. Can you give me the commands you would use to install mongo with PECL at the prescribed version? Both from-scratch and with -f to override.

Thanks!

[josmardias]

To install mongo pecl version 1.3.1:

$ pecl install mongo-1.3.1

If alreadly installed, or you want to install an older version:

$ pecl install -f mongo-1.3.1

[basepi]

Cool, thanks, I'll look into this.

[basepi]

Fixed in #6315. Add force: True to your state once that fix is in.
