Reproduce Steps: 1. bootup target with qemuarm sato/sdk image. 2. zypper search man and check the output. 3. download man-1.6f-r0.armv5te.rpm and man-dev-1.6f-r0.armv5te.rpm from http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/nightly/20110305-4/rpm/armv5te/, and copy them to target. 4. install man-1.6f-r0.armv5te.rpm with rpm command 4. zypper search man and check the output. 5. install man-dev-1.6f-r0.armv5te.rpm with rpm command. 6. zypper search man and check the output. 7. zypper rm man-dev and check the output. 8. zypper search man and check the output. 9. zypper rm man and check the output. 12759 1 qing.he 2011-03-17 06:23:13 +0000 problem was found that .armv5te.rpm don't appear in "zypper search avahi".

The exact spot is at zypp/Repository.cc:32, following is the run path that actually initializes it: const Repository Repository::noRepository; -> zypp::Repository::Repository(); -> zypp::RepoInfo::RepoInfo(); -> zypp::RepoInfo::Impl::Impl(); -> zypp::repo::RepoVariablesUrlReplacer::RepoVariablesUrlReplacer(); -> zypp::repo::RepoVariablesStringReplacer::RepoVariablesStringReplacer(); The definition of the final node on the chain is at zypp/repo/RepoVariables.cc:26 --- RepoVariablesStringReplacer::RepoVariablesStringReplacer() { sysarch = Arch_empty; basearch = Arch_empty; } -- Where Arch_empty is defined in zypp/Arch.cc: -- const Arch Arch_empty ( IdString::Empty ); -- At this point, the initialization order of zypp::Repository::noRepository and zypp::Arch_empty is undefined (which is also referred to as the "static initialization order fiasco"), since they belong to different compilation units (read, .cc file). On x86, we are fortunate that Arch_empty is init'ed before noRepository, but on arm the order is reversed. When the constructor of RepoVariablesStringReplacer runs, Arch_empty is not constructed yet, and it immediately leads to undefined behavior. On g++ 4.5.0, this will result in default constructor of Arch, i.e. Arch::Arch() being called, and then ArchCompatSet::instance(), which leads to the pre-mature construction of the compatibility table. That's why zypper on arm fails. 13098 5 qing.he 2011-04-01 19:15:26 +0000 The original issue is fixed together with bug 490.
