I tried to yum update a RHEL5 beta workstation install this morning (to the nightly trees on qafiler) and it failed because xorg-x11-server seems to pull in xorg-x11-utils now, which is not in the tree. I could update just fine yesterday...

Repoclosure is showing the following xorg unresolved dep against the RHEL5-Client-20061107.nightly. Is this related? [Nov 07 08:31:52] < jlaska> | package: xorg-x11-server-Xorg - 1.1.1-48.2.el5.i386 from Client [Nov 07 08:31:52] < jlaska> | unresolved deps: [Nov 07 08:31:52] < jlaska> | xorg-x11-utils
yes
Yes. This is not a new dependency by any means, so I claim distribution issue. Apparently it fell out of the tree starting with the 20061104 compose: http://porkchop.devel.redhat.com/nightly/RHEL5-Server-20061104.nightly/tree-i386/Server/ Presumably Matthias could update yesterday because the tree yesterday didn't contain an updated X server, so the xorg-x11-utils dep wasn't checked.
This was from a distill change that was caused by some confusion on my end. The fix has been checked in.
QE ack for RHEL5B2.
