+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2032266 +++ It appears that for s390x, creating iso is not possible (or optionnal ?), but the following dependencies are set none the less in the rear package: libburn libisoburn libisofs xorriso or genisoimage Would it be possible not to have those set in the final rear package ? --- Additional comment from Pavel Cahyna on 2021-12-14 09:58:20 UTC --- Thanks for the report, I will have a look at addressing this in the next update. In the long term though I believe creating ISOs might be actually useful on S/390x (for booting LPARs). What do you think? Would that be an useful feature to add? --- Additional comment from Pierre Amadio on 2021-12-17 10:14:39 UTC --- i just spoke with the customer behind ticket#03104120. Being able to create iso on s390x might be interesting (so he has an other way of installing things) but is not something he is currently formally requesting. --- Additional comment from Pavel Cahyna on 2021-12-17 10:25:06 UTC --- Thanks. Is the customer using ReaR on a LPAR? Note that if we add the ability to create ISOs, those dependencies will stay on the package, because they will not be unneeded anymore. Would that be a problem? --- Additional comment from Pierre Amadio on 2021-12-17 11:48:22 UTC --- Yes, he is using Rear to backup/restore LPAR. Having the dependencies kept if they are actually used (in case a create iso features exist) is ok.
