Description of problem: bcfg2 requires python-lxml which doesn't exit in the EPEL repository Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.9.4-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install clean rhel4 system 2. Add epel repo to sources 3. up2date bcfg2 Actual results: Error: Missing Dependency: python-lxml is needed by package bcfg2 Expected results: Should pull python-lxml as dependency Additional info: This issue also affects el5 as well.
I've been trying to contact the python-lxml maintainer for almost a month now (see #245690). Unless he responds soon we'll probably need to declare him AWOL and find new maintainers for his packages.
Created attachment 159922 [details] Source rpm for python-lxml This is the source rpm that I am using to resolve the dependency. I've run it through brew. It builds on all arches and I have tested on i386 and x86_64. If the maintainer is in fact AWOL, I wouldn't mind picking up maintainer-ship (If that is appropriate).
Looks like python-lxml is in epel now, can this bug be closed?
