From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041123 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: The 'cdda2wav' package is missing from the RHEL3 WS and AS channels. This is odd since the mkisofs, cdrecord, and cdrecord-devel packages are present. All four of these packages come from the same source RPM (cdrtools), and cdda2wav is built if the cdrtools-2.01.0.a32-0.EL3.1 source package is rebuilt. At least one package (xcdroast) requires the cdda2wav package, and it cannot be installed due to a failed dependency on cdda2wav. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cdrtools-2.01.0.a32-0.EL3.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RHEL3 2. Register system with RHN. 3. Try to install 'cdda2wav'. This will fail. 4. Try to install any of: cdrecord, cdrecord-devel, or mkisofs. This will succeed. Actual Results: 1) The cdda2wav package is not installed. Expected Results: cdda2wav package should be installed. This is true both when installing directly ("up2date -i cdda2wav") and indirectly as a dependency ("up2date -i xcdroast").

xcdroast and cdda2wav are not in RHEL 3
Created attachment 108286 [details] Rebuild of cdrtools-2.01.0.a32-0.EL33.1.src.rpm package creates cdda2wav-2.01.0.a32-0.EL3.1.i386.rpm file This is the output (edited for brevity) from rebuilding the cdrtools-2.01.0.a32-0.EL33.1.src.rpm package. It creates a binary cdda2wav rpm file, as well as binary packages for mkisofs, cdrecord, and cdrecord-devel.
If they aren't in RHEL3, then why are mkisofs, cdrecord, and cdrecord-devel included? Alternately, why does cdrtools include cdda2wav? These four packages all come from the cdrtools source package. Please see the attached file for a demonstration. If cdda2wav is to be excluded, then I would expect it to be broken into a seperate src.rpm file, instead of quietly being included in the cdrtools source package. I agree that xcdroast is not part of RHEL3, it merely was used in as an example of a package that has cdda2wav as a dependency.
