Description Miroslav Vadkerti 2014-08-22 09:30:46 EDT

Description of problem:
Between composes RHEL-6.6-20140731.1 and RHEL-6.6-20140820.0 the minimal installation has changed. Two packages had been dropped from the minimal install:

$ diff new-pkgs old-pkgs 
6a7
> authconfig
229a231
> system-config-firewall-base

So two packages are now no longer installed authconfig and system-config-firewall-base.
I suspect anaconda did this. I do not know if this change is expected. This breaks Common Criteria installation kickstart that counts with authconfig installed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-13.21.225-1.el6

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install minimal install
2. rpm -q authconfig system-config-firewall-base

Actual results:
Not installed

Expected results:
Installed

Additional info:
We should not change minimal install during releases. Could break customer setups.

Comment 1 David Shea 2014-08-22 09:43:04 EDT

These tools were never part of the core group. In order to avoid pulling in unnecessary dependencies, authconfig and system-config-firewall-base are no longer installed unless they are actually needed during installation.
