From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4 Description of problem: RHEL4U1 installer installs MySQL version 4.1.7 and the mysqlclient10 packages even though the MySQL Database pacakge group is deselected (which is the default) during the installation process. In addition, there are two instances of the mysql-4.1.7 package that get installed, so to remove them I have to use the 'rpm -e --allmatches' command. Not sure if this is related or not. This has been observed with the x86_64 RHEL4u1, have not tried with i386 version. Testing was performed on an HP BL20p G3 blade; Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mysql-4.1.7-5.RHEL4.1, mysqlclient10-3.23.58-4.RHEL4.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Begin a fresh RHEL4u1 installation on an x86_64 system 2. Make sure that the MySQL Database package selection is de-selected (default) 3. Observe that when the installation is complete, several mysql packages are now installed, despite step #2 above Actual Results: MySQL exists on the system when it should not. This hinders future installation of binary RPM packages from mysql.com, for example. Expected Results: The installed system should not have MySQL installed Additional info:
Some other packages are probably installed which require those library packages (those are libs, not the servers). If you run rpm --test -e mysql libmysqlclient10, what does it tell you it can't remove them for?
The db-related packages that appear to be installed by default are these: [root@bic-b2 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i sql postgresql-libs-7.4.7-3.RHEL4.1 mysql-4.1.7-5.RHEL4.1 perl-DBD-MySQL-2.9004-3.1 mysqlclient10-3.23.58-4.RHEL4.1 cyrus-sasl-sql-2.1.19-5.EL4 [root@bic-b2 ~]# The mysql package appears to be the actual mysql 4.1.7 client package: [root@bic-b2 ~]# rpm -qi mysql Name : mysql Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 4.1.7 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.
