Description Alexander Murashkin 2012-03-28 11:40:43 UTC

Description of problem:

drbd has excessive dependencies. It makes it difficult to install if you do not want to have Xen.  

# repoquery -R drbd.x86_64 
drbd-bash-completion = 8.3.11
drbd-heartbeat = 8.3.11
drbd-pacemaker = 8.3.11
drbd-udev = 8.3.11
drbd-utils = 8.3.11
drbd-xen = 8.3.11

Only one of drbd-heartbeat or drbd-pacemaker shall be required if at all (there are other packages that can be used for failover). drbd-xen, for sure, shall not be required.

Here is what I got when trying to install drbd.

# yum install drbd.x86_64

Comment 1 Alexander Murashkin 2012-04-01 08:31:54 UTC

New drbd package has much better dependencies.

# repoquery -R drbd-8.3.11-4.fc16.x86_64
drbd-bash-completion = 8.3.11
drbd-udev = 8.3.11
drbd-utils = 8.3.11

It is not clear though why drbd-bash-completion is required. Or, if it is required, why it requires bash-completion.

If you check. for example, subversion - it has /etc/bash_completion.d/subversion file but does not require bash-completion.

# rpm -ql subversion-1.6.17-5.fc16.x86_64 | grep bash
/etc/bash_completion.d
/etc/bash_completion.d/subversion
/usr/share/doc/subversion-1.6.17/tools/client-side/bash_completion_test

# rpm -qR subversion-1.6.17-5.fc16.x86_64 | grep bash
/bin/bash

Comment 2 Major Hayden 🤠 2012-04-02 02:33:29 UTC

Good catch, folks.  This was left over from the previous maintainer and I haven't gone back to tidy things up.

I'm working on this tonight.
