Description Warren Togami 2008-04-13 23:56:12 UTC

Chroot installs and some upgrades from Fedora 8 end up without
event-compat-sysv.  Attempting to boot a system without event-compat-sysv causes
bootup to get stuck shortly after switchroot.

Should initscripts (or something else) require event-compat-sysv?  We clearly
cannot operate without it yet.

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2008-04-14 16:17:56 UTC

I suppose it could, however:

- it's pulled in on upgrades because it obsoletes event-compat-sysv
- it's pulled in on the most minimal installs as a mandatory package in the core
comps group

Ergo, I'm not seeing how you'd end up without it other than by manual removal.

Warren, can you answer Bill's question.

Bill, can you do a build so that we can close this bug out of the blocker list?

Comment 4 Bill Nottingham 2008-04-15 17:27:56 UTC

Fixed in 8.70-1.

Comment 5 Warren Togami 2008-04-15 20:01:05 UTC

I don't know how yum upgrades ended up without event-compat-sysv.

Anyhow, in discussion it was agreed that "it doesn't work without it" is a good
enough reason to depend on it.
