Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 441749
firstboot uses kudzu?

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #441721 +++ libkudzu doesn't contain the minifind() routine. So, for example, the additionalcds firstboot module aborts with ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_kudzumodule.so: undefined symbol minifind ... I'll fix kudzu, but what is firstboot doing here? pirut had HAL-based CD code.
Yes, the old old additional_cds module contains CD code as it was never updated to work with the new way of doing things. It's not enabled so any kudzu dependency can be removed, but we'll need to update this module before the next RHEL rolls out.
Apparently it's still imported on firstboot start. Should we not package it for now?
It's imported because we try to import all modules. We can just not package it until a replacement shows up if that helps speed along getting rid of kudzu.
Well, the package doesn't require kudzu. So it theoretically could traceback on a failed import.
Okay, this will be removed from the next rebuild of firstboot.
