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


How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:

2.attempt to install samba3x to communicate with 2008R2
3.ocsinventory depends on samba, but it gets uninstalled.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:
packages that can use samba3x need to be updated to depend on either samba or samba3x?

Comment 1 Xavier Bachelot 2010-11-17 11:12:57 UTC
The bug is not really in ocsinventory, but rather in the samba3x package. It might however be worked around by replacing the 'Requires: samba-client' in ocsinventory-reports by 'Requires: /usr/bin/nmblookup' but this is a bit ugly. 'Conflicts:', especially when not used properly, is evil.

This seems ok for me.

Comment 3 Remi Collet 2010-11-17 17:14:32 UTC
# yum resolvedep /usr/bin/nmblookup
0:samba-client-3.0.33-3.29.el5_5.1.i386

So ocsinventory will not force user to install samba3x

I think we could wait version 1.3.3 (in a few days) to fix this bug.
