Comment 1 Satish Balay 2004-12-14 12:15:35 EST

BTW: this is with yum-2.1.12-1 & kernel-hugemem-2.6.9-1.715_FC3 (and 698)

Comment 2 Satish Balay 2004-12-14 12:34:09 EST

Perhaps kernel-xen0 & kernel-xenU should also be part of installonlypkgs list?

Comment 3 Seth Vidal 2004-12-19 02:51:53 EST

maybe we need another provides tag for this sort of stuff.

Right now if something provides: kernel-modules then yum will treat it like a
kernel and only ever install it. Not upgrade it.

maybe we need a provides that says 'this is a kernel' so yum and up2date can dtrt.

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2004-12-19 11:25:44 EST

All kernel packages should already Provides: kernel.
