Description Kamil Páral 2013-03-25 15:45:55 UTC 
Description of problem:
Please read bug 926004. Currently livecd-creator doesn't print any useful information when broken package dependencies prevent image creation.

> $ livecd-creator -c fedora-live-desktop.ks --releasever 19 -f "live-f19-3"
> /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pykickstart/commands/partition.py:309: UserWarning: A partition with the mountpoint / has already been defined.
> warnings.warn(_("A partition with the mountpoint %s has already been defined.") % pd.mountpoint)
> Skipping (/sys/fs/selinux,/sys/fs/selinux) because source doesn't exist.
> Error creating Live CD : Dependency check failed!

But it seems trivial to print it:

>         deps = self.ts.check()
>         if len(deps) != 0:
>             for msg in deps:
>                 print(msg)
>             raise CreatorError("Dependency check failed!")

(of course the output format should be improved slightly).

This information is crucial for developers and testers, because we can then easily report a bug against the offending package.

Please patch livecd-tools to print broken dependencies.
