Description Jan Safranek 2010-06-24 10:26:11 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #603578 +++

Description of problem:
Packages aren't supposed to depend on redhat-lsb, and the latest libcgroup does (and is brought in by policycoreutils).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libcgroup.i686                    0.36.1-1.fc14                    rawhide

--- Additional comment from mclasen on 2010-06-16 20:47:03 EDT ---

This has ramifications for our live cds: we now have gettext and cvs on the live cd, pulled in via:

policycoreutils-python -> libcgroup -> redhat-lsb -> gettext -> cvs

The redhat-lsb dependency is unacceptable.

--- Additional comment from jsafrane on 2010-06-22 08:28:26 EDT ---

OK, I give up... Let's patch the initscripts until #245494 is resolved.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2010-06-24 10:32:56 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

Comment 4 Mike Gahagan 2010-08-18 16:00:48 UTC
confirmed libcgroup no longer needs redhat-lsb in Snapshot 11

Comment 5 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-10 21:02:23 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.

Comment 6 Leonid Kanter 2013-11-27 14:13:35 UTC
This problem was re-implemented in 6.5

# rpm -q --requires libcgroup-0.40.rc1-5.el6.x86_64 | grep redhat-lsb
redhat-lsb-core

Comment 7 Matthias Saou 2013-11-28 15:03:21 UTC
I second Leonid on this one. All of my minimal RHEL6 systems are about to become not-so-minimal-anymore because of RHEL 6.5's libcgroup package update :

[root@host ~]# yum update libcgroup

Comment 9 Ondrej Vasik 2013-11-28 16:50:39 UTC
In the case that something reoccurs after several years, it is better to open new case. Otherwise, the old bugzilla remains assigned to the engineer who worked on it in the past - and sometimes he may no longer be assigned to this project. I reassigned the bugzilla to current maintainer, new dependency was added by accident and there is already activity trying to resolve it quickly.

Comment 10 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2013-12-04 22:35:07 UTC
Affects me as well.

Comment 11 Matthias Saou 2013-12-13 09:45:29 UTC
This has been resolved with the 0.40.rc1-5.el6.1 update. See #1036805 for the details.
