As per our email conversation, I'm closing this as NOTABUG. I really don't think this is anything that needs to be fixed in kexec-tools at the moment. Its alsmot like rpm is getting very confused about what is allowedto satisfy dependencies during a build. We can re-open this is we find that this actaully does need to be fixed in the spec file, but given what you have above this really sounds like an rpm bug to me. |
