From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030530 Description of problem: Immediately after the initial boot, I ran "rpm -Va". It reported many, many unsatisfied dependencies. Some background: My goal in installing RHL v9 was to have all of the non-GUI packages and none of the GUI packages installed. To this end I selected Everything in the package selection screen, then manually deselected all the XFree86, Gnome and KDE packages I could find. I then let the installer work out the dependency conflicts and indicated I did not want to install the packages with missing dependencies. Installation continued as usual from there. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Everything, excepting GUI apps, as described above 2. Immediately after the initial boot, run "rpm -Va". Actual Results: # rpm -Va | grep Unsatis Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-nfs-1.0.4-5: pygtk2 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-users-1.1.5-7: pygtk2, pygtk2-libglade Unsatisfied dependencies for gimp-print-utils-4.2.4-5: gimp-print = 4.2.4 Unsatisfied dependencies for SDL_net-devel-1.2.4-5: SDL_net = 1.2.4-5 Unsatisfied dependencies for libglade2-devel-2.0.1-3: gtk2-devel >= 2.1.2, libglade2 = 2.0.1 Unsatisfied dependencies for pygtk2-devel-1.99.14-4: pygtk2 = 1.99.14 Unsatisfied dependencies for libmrproject-devel-0.9-5: gtk+-devel, libmrproject = 0.9 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-kickstart-2.3.6-4: pygtk2 >= 1.99.11, pygtk2-libglade Unsatisfied dependencies for gnome-python2-gconf-1.99.14-5: GConf2 >= 1.1.10, libgconf-2.so.4 Unsatisfied dependencies for libao-devel-0.8.3-3: libao = 0.8.3 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-switch-mail-gnome-0.5.17-1: libglade2, pygtk2, pygtk2-libglade Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-securitylevel-1.1.1-3: pygtk2 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-language-1.0.4-1: pygtk2 Unsatisfied dependencies for librsvg-devel-1.0.2-8: librsvg = 1.0.2 Unsatisfied dependencies for GConf2-devel-2.2.0-1: GConf2 = 2.2.0 Unsatisfied dependencies for gail-devel-1.2.0-1: gail = 1.2.0, gtk2-devel >= 2.2.0 Unsatisfied dependencies for gimp-print-devel-4.2.4-5: gimp-print = 4.2.4 Unsatisfied dependencies for authconfig-gtk-4.3.4-1: pygtk2-libglade Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-rootpassword-1.0.2-4: pygtk2 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-soundcard-1.0.4-2: pygtk2 Unsatisfied dependencies for SDL_mixer-devel-1.2.4-7: SDL_mixer = 1.2.4 Unsatisfied dependencies for librsvg2-devel-2.2.3-1: gtk2-devel >= 2.2.0, librsvg2 = 2.2.3 Unsatisfied dependencies for gimp-print-cups-4.2.4-5: libgimpprint.so.1 Unsatisfied dependencies for libgnomeprintui22-devel-2.2.1.1-1: gtk2-devel >= 2.2.0, libgnomeprint22-devel >= 2.2.1.1, libgnomeprintui22 = 2.2.1.1 Unsatisfied dependencies for libwnck-devel-2.2.1-2: gtk2-devel >= 2.2.0, libwnck = 2.2.1, pango-devel >= 1.2.0 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-switch-printer-gnome-0.5.16-1: libglade2, pygtk2, pygtk2-libglade Unsatisfied dependencies for libgnomeprintui-devel-1.116.0-4: gtk2-devel >= 2.0.2, libgnomeprint-devel >= 1.116.0, libgnomeprintui = 1.116.0 Unsatisfied dependencies for vorbis-tools-1.0-3: libao >= 0.8.3, libao.so.2 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-config-samba-1.0.4-1: pygtk2 Unsatisfied dependencies for redhat-logviewer-0.8.5-1: pygtk2 Unsatisfied dependencies for SDL_image-devel-1.2.2-5: SDL-devel >= 1.2.3-5, SDL_image = 1.2.2 Unsatisfied dependencies for libgnomecanvas-devel-2.2.0.1-1: gtk2-devel >= 2.1.2, libgnomecanvas = 2.2.0.1 Unsatisfied dependencies for pydict-0.3.0-4: pygtk2 Expected Results: The installer should not install packages with unsatisfied dependencies unless the user explicit requests it. Additional info: The installer was partially correct in removing packages with missing dependencies. For example, the Mozilla packages were not installed even though I did not state an installation preference for those specfic packages. Nevertheless, I stated that I did *not* want packages with missing dependencies installed, yet here they are.
