Description of problem: Installation of yumex fails in epel7 because of missing requires. 1. Missing pyxdg in now built, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1130793 2. python-pexpect is simply called pexpect in rhel/centos. 3. rhel7 use udisk2 instead of udisk. Is this require really needed? I localy build yumex for centos and it works pretty well, udisk2 is installed. Or maybe change it too udisk2 if possible. Additional info: We have also build the Mate stack for epel7. It would be nice if we could use yumex as package manager instead of packagekit for rhel/centos too. Thank you
the python-expect -> pexpect is an easy fix. udisk is a harder one, udisk and udisk2 is not compatible, there is removed features from udisk2, that yumex uses. one solution is to make udisk a soft requirement and lose the removeable media support if it not installed.
yumex-3.0.15-2.el7 has been submitted as an update for Fedora EPEL 7. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/yumex-3.0.15-2.el7
thx, for quick reaction.
After a little investigation, it look like yumex work fine when udisks is not installed, multi media repos will not work, but they are very rare. So i have removed the udisks dependency and made a new build for epel7.
