Expected results: It should not try and pull in python26, as pygments is supported by python24 which should be the default since it is supplied by
the base, packages in EPEL should not try replacing packages in base.


Additional info:

The spec file is broken, because python26 support should be in the python26-pygments package not in the python-pygments.

Comment 1 Andrew Colin Kissa 2011-08-26 09:23:28 UTC

Additional info:

rpm -q --requires -p python-pygments-1.4-1.el5.noarch.rpm 
/usr/bin/python  
python(abi) = 2.4
python(abi) = 2.6
python-imaging  
python-setuptools  
python26-distribute  
python26-imaging  
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1

Thats not right, it should not require any python26 packages.
