Thanks for fling this bug report. As I am constantly working on breaking up large dependency chains (see bug 661442), I appreciate your efforts. However there is nothing that we as the maintainers of the desktop-backgrounds package can change, it's on the GNOME maintainers to remove the dependency to our package from theirs. In order to do this, please give us the full output of the yum commands you were running (I am not running GNOME, so I can't do it). I appreciate your prompt reply. I'm afraid I can't tell you what commands I use cause I remove packages via GUI using Yum Extender I'm not entirely sure why these dependencies are considered incorrect. It seems reasonable that if the default collection of background images is not present, the Gnome desktop will not work correctly. And if you install Gnome, you would expect the default background images to get pulled in automatically. In case you still want to go ahead with this, I'm running Gnome so I can supply the requested info... "yum remove desktop-backgrounds-gnome" tries to uninstall the following: Removing: desktop-backgrounds-gnome noarch 18.0.0-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 115 Removing for dependencies: bluez x86_64 4.101-6.fc18 @updates 1.9 M brasero-nautilus x86_64 3.6.1-2.fc18 @updates 47 k cheese x86_64 2:3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 3.8 M cheese-libs x86_64 2:3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 4.2 M control-center x86_64 1:3.6.3-2.fc18 @updates 15 M deja-dup x86_64 26.0-1.fc18 @updates 3.8 M empathy x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 13 M eog x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 7.9 M evince-nautilus x86_64 3.6.1-2.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 19 k evolution x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 44 M evolution-ews x86_64 3.6.4-1.fc18 @updates 1.1 M file-roller-nautilus x86_64 3.6.3-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 19 k gdm x86_64 1:3.6.2-5.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 4.9 M gdm-libs x86_64 1:3.6.2-5.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 36 k gnome-bluetooth x86_64 1:3.6.1-3.fc18 @updates 271 k gnome-clocks noarch 0.1.5-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 541 k gnome-color-manager x86_64 3.6.1-1.fc18 @updates 3.8 M gnome-contacts x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 1.2 M gnome-desktop3 x86_64 3.6.3-1.fc18 @updates 2.5 M gnome-documents x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 1.0 M gnome-font-viewer x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 240 k gnome-packagekit x86_64 3.6.2-2.fc18 @updates 12 M gnome-panel x86_64 3.6.2-2.fc18 @updates 9.0 M gnome-screensaver x86_64 3.6.1-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 1.1 M gnome-settings-daemon x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 5.7 M gnome-settings-daemon-updates x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 65 k gnome-shell x86_64 3.6.3.1-1.fc18 @updates 4.7 M gnome-shell-extension-common noarch 3.6.2-1.fc18 @updates 268 k gnome-shell-extension-user-theme noarch 3.6.2-1.fc18 @updates 6.9 k gnome-tweak-tool noarch 3.6.1-2.fc18 @fedora 457 k nautilus x86_64 3.6.3-4.fc18 @updates 14 M nautilus-extensions x86_64 3.6.3-4.fc18 @updates 52 k orca x86_64 3.6.3-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 13 M pulseaudio-gdm-hooks x86_64 2.1-6.fc18 @updates 354 pulseaudio-module-bluetooth x86_64 2.1-6.fc18 @updates 216 k totem-nautilus x86_64 1:3.6.3-2.fc18 @updates 61 k Similar for "yum remove spherical-cow-backgrounds-gnome" Removing: spherical-cow-backgrounds-gnome noarch 18.0.0-2.fc18 @updates 989 Removing for dependencies: bluez x86_64 4.101-6.fc18 @updates 1.9 M brasero-nautilus x86_64 3.6.1-2.fc18 @updates 47 k cheese x86_64 2:3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 3.8 M cheese-libs x86_64 2:3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 4.2 M control-center x86_64 1:3.6.3-2.fc18 @updates 15 M deja-dup x86_64 26.0-1.fc18 @updates 3.8 M desktop-backgrounds-gnome noarch 18.0.0-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 115 empathy x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 13 M eog x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 7.9 M evince-nautilus x86_64 3.6.1-2.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 19 k evolution x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 44 M evolution-ews x86_64 3.6.4-1.fc18 @updates 1.1 M file-roller-nautilus x86_64 3.6.3-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 19 k gdm x86_64 1:3.6.2-5.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 4.9 M gdm-libs x86_64 1:3.6.2-5.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 36 k gnome-bluetooth x86_64 1:3.6.1-3.fc18 @updates 271 k gnome-clocks noarch 0.1.5-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 541 k gnome-color-manager x86_64 3.6.1-1.fc18 @updates 3.8 M gnome-contacts x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 1.2 M gnome-desktop3 x86_64 3.6.3-1.fc18 @updates 2.5 M gnome-documents x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 1.0 M gnome-font-viewer x86_64 3.6.2-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 240 k gnome-packagekit x86_64 3.6.2-2.fc18 @updates 12 M gnome-panel x86_64 3.6.2-2.fc18 @updates 9.0 M gnome-screensaver x86_64 3.6.1-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 1.1 M gnome-settings-daemon x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 5.7 M gnome-settings-daemon-updates x86_64 3.6.4-3.fc18 @updates 65 k gnome-shell x86_64 3.6.3.1-1.fc18 @updates 4.7 M gnome-shell-extension-common noarch 3.6.2-1.fc18 @updates 268 k gnome-shell-extension-user-theme noarch 3.6.2-1.fc18 @updates 6.9 k gnome-tweak-tool noarch 3.6.1-2.fc18 @fedora 457 k nautilus x86_64 3.6.3-4.fc18 @updates 14 M nautilus-extensions x86_64 3.6.3-4.fc18 @updates 52 k orca x86_64 3.6.3-1.fc18 @koji-override-0/$releasever 13 M pulseaudio-gdm-hooks x86_64 2.1-6.fc18 @updates 354 pulseaudio-module-bluetooth x86_64 2.1-6.fc18 @updates 216 k totem-nautilus x86_64 1:3.6.3-2.fc18 @updates 61 k This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
