Description Steve Snyder 2011-04-08 14:52:16 UTC

Description of problem:

This package has bind as a dependency, but that dependency is not
satisfied when using bind97.

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

system-config-bind-4.0.3-4.el5
bind97-9.7.0-6.P2.el5

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On fully updated v5.6 system, replace the bind-* packages with bind97
equivalents
2. Run "package-cleanup --problems"
3.
  
Actual results:

# package-cleanup --problems
Setting up yum
Reading local RPM database
Processing all local requires
Missing dependencies:
Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils
Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils
Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils
Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils
Package system-config-bind requires bind
Package system-config-bind requires bind-utils

Expected results:

bind97-* packages should satisfy bind-* dependencies.

Additional info:

# package-cleanup --problems
Setting up yum
Reading local RPM database
Processing all local requires
Missing dependencies:
Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils
Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils
Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion
in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.  Product Management has
requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for
potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release for currently
deployed products.  This request is not yet committed for inclusion in
a release.

Comment 3 Steve Snyder 2012-04-19 16:11:07 UTC

It is unbelievable that this is still languishing over a year after the creation of this Bugzilla entry.

Are packaging incompatibilities really so low-priority that you guys can't get out a tweaked spec file for RHEL versions 5.6, 5.7 and now 5.8?  Jeez!

Comment 4 Adam Tkac 2012-04-23 13:13:42 UTC

In my opinion this isn't a bug. bind97 and bind have many differences in their configurations so system-config-bind is not usable to configure bind97. Due to this reason I think it's correct that s-c-b requires bind and bind97 doesn't satisfy this dependency.

Comment 5 Jaroslav Reznik 2012-04-24 07:51:26 UTC

Adam, thank you for comment. Bind97 package really does not satisfy the Bind dependency.

Correctly removed bind and bind-utils packages (using yum remove) removes system-config-bind too - so there should be no left over on your system.

A brief test shown, it's possible to change s-c-b to support Bind 97 (at least partially). But it's not supportable. If you wish to use s-c-b with Bind 97, please report RFE.
