From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703 Description of problem: In installed Workstation, ans *DID NOT* select to install KDE desktop. Nevertheless, the KDE desktop was installed. *However* whenever I run the package manager to install additional packages, for the KDE section, it *consistently* reports "0 of 16 packages installed"!!! ... even after I had just recently installed the kdepim (as kmail was complaining that the addressbook module was absent). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-packages-1.9.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install using Workstation with default packages 2. After installation, select KDE session from the GDM. 3. Run software manager to install any KDE application Actual Results: Both Gnome and KDE desktops were installed. Running software manager (effectively) claims that no KDE applications are installed. Expected Results: Only Gnome desktop should be installed. If, for example, two KDE applications are installed package manager should report 2 of 16 packages are installed, Additional info:
I did an upgrade from Shrike to Severn, and r-c-p says that no X Window System, GNOME, or KDE packages are installed (0 of 35, 0 of 35, and 0 of 16, respectively). Of course, they are installed. This appears to be a problem only with Group View.
This is due to the definition we use for "installed" which is all mandatory packages installed, which isn't necessarily the case after an upgrade :/
