Cannot install insync 1.2.14 on Fedora 22 64bits

[Jonathan_Pineault]

Hi,

I just tried installing the new version of Insync this morning. I get the following error when unpacking :

    Exécution de la transaction
  Installation de                : insync-1.2.14.35168-fc21.x86_64          1/1

insync-1.2.14.35168-fc21.x86_64 was supposed to be installed but is not!

Installé :
  insync.x86_64 1.2.14.35168-fc21   

It tells that insync is installed, but it’s not.

Now nothing is working

Using fedora 22 on 64 bits machine.

Check the release notes here:

New Insync version: 1.2.13/1.2.14

Hi, Fresh fedora 22 workstation install just to test this new release in a VM machine, same problem as JohnCall: [root@localhost ~]# dnf install ~terrence/Downloads/insync-1.2.13.35166-fc21.x86_64.rpm Warning: failed loading ‘/etc/yum.repos.d/gtk-theme-config.repo’, skipping.

Apparently you have to manually: dnf remove insync before installing.
If that doesn’t work, also: rm /usr/lib/insync --recursive --force

The spec file should be fixed to take care of this situation.

@gbcox @Jonathan_Pineault Did you upgrade from 1.2.12 or 1.2.13?

Hi,

We could fix the issue like that:

1. Remove insync and insync-headless
   sudo dnf remove insync

2. Find all rests of insync and insync-headless
   sudo find / -iname insync 2>/dev/null*

3. Delete all enrties found EXCEPT WHAT IS IN YOUR HOME DIRECTORY (it’s your config) and the /etc/yum.repo.d/insync.repo (if you deleted it > See here how to add it again)
   sudo rm -fr [/path/to/fileordir1]
   sudo rm -fr [/path/to/fileordir2]
   etc.

4. Clean dnf
   sudo dnf clean all

5. Install the last version of insync
   sudo dnf install -y insync

That’s all, we hope it helps.
