Description Jeremy Katz 2008-03-11 20:09:33 UTC 
When building the x86_64 live image, we're currently getting
  error: rpmtsOrder failed, 6 elements remain

after which, things obviously go badly

ordering output

Here's a run with verbosity of RPMLOG_DEBUG so that we see the ordering info.
Comment 2 Panu Matilainen 2008-03-12 07:23:20 UTC 
Looks like we have an unprecedented amount of loops in the package set, causing
the limit of max 10 rescans to break out early. I removed the artificial rescan
limit in rawhide (rpm-4.4.2.3-0.3.rc1) so it should now only stop trying if no
further dependency loops can be eliminated.

Lets see what happens... if it goes into infinite loop, I missed something ;)
If it still breaks out, there are unbreakable loops in the set which need to be
fixed.

Looks good in the quick test.  Probably worth sending mail to
rel-eng to get it tagged for the beta
Comment 4 Will Woods 2008-03-14 16:23:41 UTC 
Package is tagged for beta; closing.
