Description Brian Pepple 2007-10-02 19:58:57 UTC
Description of problem: conduit is pulling in Tomboy (and all the crap
associated with it) by default even though it's not a hard dependency.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.3.3-5

How reproducible: always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install conduit
2. sit back and watch all the unnecessary mono packages be pulled in, even
though this is a python package.

Expected results: conduit install only the needed python packages.

Comment 1 Brian Pepple 2007-10-02 20:03:28 UTC
Also, I believe your Requires should be on dbus-python, not dbus.

Comment 2 Bernard Johnson 2007-10-02 21:35:31 UTC
When I first built the package, I thought that conduit would produce an error if
tomboy were not available to sync to.  I later found out that it will detect the
presence of tomboy at runtime, I just haven't had a chance to update the spec
file since then.

I'll check into the dbus-python issue as well.  Thanks.

Comment 3 Brian Pepple 2007-10-02 21:50:43 UTC
Yeah, this should be pretty easy to fix.  If you don't have time, I can.

It seems a little more complicated than that.  dbus-python is required, but
dbus-python does not require dbus (go figure).  So both dbus and dbus-python are
required.
