Description Felipe Alfaro Solana 2003-12-01 09:16:33 UTC

Description of problem: 
yum-2.0.4-3 does not depend on rpm-python and libxml2-python. That 
is, yum doesn't require rpm-python and libxml2-python to get 
installed. 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
yum-2.0.4-3 
 
How reproducible: 
Always 
 
Steps to Reproduce: 
1. rpm -e rpm-python 
2. rpm -e libxml2-python 
3. rpm -i yum-2.0.4-3.i386.rpm 
4. yum check-update 
 
This will fail complaining that module "rpm" or module "libxml2" is 
missing. 
   
Actual results: 
yum-2.0.4-3 has missing dependencies. 
 
Expected results: 
yum-2.0.4-3 should depend on both rpm-python and libxml2-python.

Dependencies on rpm are knd of pointless.

libxml2-python might be useful, punted upstream.

Comment 3 Seth Vidal 2003-12-13 22:52:05 UTC

ok
Would red hat stop changing my specfile? :)

from the yum 2.0.X specfile in cvs:
Requires: python, rpm-python, rpm >= 0:4.1.1, libxml2-python


so who made the change?
