Description of problem: installation or upgrade to kdeedu on F9 (updates-testing) or rawhide pulls in a whole bunch of dependencies, including kdebase Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdeedu-4.1.0-1.fc9 Steps to Reproduce: 1. install kdeedu on F9 2. enable updates-testing 3. update kdeedu Actual results: kdeedu gets updated and pulls kdebase in Expected results: kdeedu should get updated, but avoid kdebase Additional info: according to Kevin Kofler, the new kdeedu version includes some plasmoids and that's why kdebase-workspace gets pulled in, which then pulls in return kdebase in
targetting rawhide.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This will be rectified with the kde-4.2 update coming soon, as plasma is part of kdelibs now.
Apparently, this has been resolved with kdeedu 4.2.1-1 at least in F10, where I'm able to install and run it without having kdebase installed. Can we close this for now (even though it might come up at a later point again)?
Yes, this has been fixed in 4.2.0, we just forgot to put it on the 4.2 tracker.
