Description Arpit Tolani 2011-03-04 09:03:23 UTC 
Description of problem:
While Installing with a kickstart, provided the following the the Pacakge section.
%packages
*
-@conflicts
%end
below packages were not installed.
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-69.el6.i686
libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686


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


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL-6.0 with kickstart and select to install all packages with * 
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-69.el6.i686
libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686

Packages were not installed.

Expected results:
Above mentioned packages should installed as they are not conflicting.

Additional info:
%packages
*
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-69.el6.i686

Giving in this format was a workaround & its worked.

Comment 7 Chris Lumens 2011-03-10 15:48:28 UTC 
Hm, I think I need some more information about the packages in question.  Are compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-69.el6.i686 and libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686 members of the Conflicts group?  Why do you have to add libcmpi* and tog-pegasus* as removals in the second example to make it work?
Comment 8 Arpit Tolani 2011-03-15 14:12:05 UTC 
%packages
*
-libcmpi*
-tog-pegasus*
-@conflicts
%end

specifying the the above format also doesnt install the above stated packages.

%packages
*
-libcmpi*
-tog-pegasus*
%end

This also doesnt work.

-libcmpi*
-tog-pegasus*

Giving this is mandotary, otherwise installation will exists because these two packages conflicts with each other.
