Description Robin Humble 2004-05-07 18:01:18 UTC
Description of problem:
package groups created by system-config-kickstart don't work with anaconda

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-kickstart-2.5.11-1

How reproducible:
very I think. I tried installing using the ks.cfg file generated by
system-config-kickstart and it didn't work as the package names were
wrong.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run system-config-kickstart
2. select some groups eg. X Window System
3. save
4. look at ks.cfg

  
Actual results:
gives the old (rh9?) format group names
...
%packages --resolvedeps
@ X Window System
@ Office/Productivity
...

Expected results:
new group names that work with anaconda.
anaconda writes /root/anaconda-ks.cfg and the package groups in
that file look like the below, and they work when you boot using a
kickstart file based on these.
...
%packages --resolvedeps
@ base-x
@ office
...

Comment 3 Brent Fox 2004-06-23 22:48:10 UTC
system-config-kickstart-2.5.12-1 should use the base names that comps
uses instead of the plain english name.  Thanks for your report.
