Description Joshua Jensen 2006-09-15 19:36:06 UTC
Description of problem:

When kickstarting a with "%packages --nobase", anaconda says "sh:  can't find
/usr/sbin/mouseconfig"

Wouldn't it make sense for anaconda, if it assumes system-config-mouse was
installed, to *require* it to be installed?  Or if not to at least test if what
it is calling is there, and if not put up a warning or otherwise bomb?
This is similar to BZ # 204797.  If anaconda assumes that it is there, shouldn't
it insist that it is installed ?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

RHEL4 U4

... also, authconfig should be on the "must install" list.

Thanks!

Comment 2 Chris Lumens 2006-09-18 19:02:23 UTC
This is already fixed in Rawhide, and will be in the next release of RHEL. 
We're not even using mouseconfig in anaconda anymore, so that's no longer a
problem.  If you need this fix in an update release of RHEL, please talk to your
support representative who will escalate the problem report through the
appropriate channels.
