Description Matthew Galgoci 2006-07-18 14:11:15 UTC
Description of problem:

pdksh conflicts with ksh. Please port the pdksh package to use the alternatives
system so that both ksh and pdksh may be installed at the same time.

Reason: oracle requires pdksh or their installer gets cranky, but ksh is often
prefered.

Comment 1 Karsten Hopp 2006-07-19 10:36:36 UTC
You can't install both at the same time, alternatives is overkill for this.
If Oracle needs pdksh they should install pdksh. If someone prefers the real ksh,
he/she installs ksh. What's the point in having both installed when you can use
only one ?
