#150 fedpkg and /etc/rpkg/fedpkg.conf.rpmnew
Closed: Invalid Opened by harald.

$ fedpkg build

wasn't working for me. It gave me

Deprecation warning: kojiconfig is deprecated. Instead, kojiprofile should be used.

and failed with:

Kerberos authentication is used, but you do not have a valid credential.
Please use kinit to get credential with a principal that has realm 
Could not execute build: Could not login to https://koji.fedoraproject.org/kojihub

If fedpkg was smart it would point the user to the old /etc/rpkg/fedpkg.conf when it encounters this error and sees /etc/rpkg/fedpkg.conf.rpmnew. :smile:


The deprecation warning is just a warning, it does not have any effect on success or failure. The actual error is that you apparently do not have a valid kerberos ticket.

What modifications do you do to the config file?

I did have a valid kerberos ticket. As soon as I moved /etc/rpkg/fedpkg.conf.rpmnew to /etc/rpkg/fedpkg.conf it worked again.

So, I might have made a change to /etc/rpkg/fedpkg.conf years ago and rpm didn't update that file automatically and the old config file was still in place causing the error messages I reported.

Good to know fedpkg works for you now. I'm going to close this issue.
