Circular Dependancy (which causes the Fedora Extras build system to fail on many builds): util-linux-2.13-0.20.i386 PreReq: /sbin/restorecon policycoreutils-1.29.26-5.i386 PreReq: /bin/mount This was created when util-linux was last updated: * Thu Mar 09 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating> 2.13-0.20 - Better calling of restorecon as suggested by Bill Nottingham - prereq restorecon to avoid ordering issues * Thu Mar 09 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating> 2.13-0.19 - restorecon /var/log/lastlog
Jesse, what remove the dependence on /sbin/restorecon and replace it with simple test: if [ -x /sbin/restorecon ]; then /sbin/restorecon /var/log/lastlog >/dev/null 2>&1 fi I think we should assume that people use FC without policy packages and I'm not sure if this dependence is good idea for so basic package like util-linux.
It seems the problem should be fixed by the latest policycoreutils release: * Fri Mar 10 2006 Dan Walsh <dwalsh> 1.29.26-6 - Remove prereq But I still not sure if "PreReq: /sbin/restorecon" in the util-linux package is a good idea. From my point of view it should more optinal. # rpm -q --whatrequires /sbin/restorecon xorg-x11-xfs-1.0.1-4 util-linux-2.13-0.20
policy already gets pulled in by other very basic packages. Pretty much these days if you install FC, you get selinux in one way or another. We just need to make sure the packages that require parts of it to run list them as prereqs for rpm ordering.
If the prereq isn't there, it almost certainly *will* get ordered wrong, judging by previous ordering of the packages.
