Description of problem: I have a system with no wireless hardware, yet I must have wireless tools installed to have most of the graphical system configuration tools installed. Obviously this isn't urgent, it's only 200k of system resources, but it would be nice for those of us without wireless hardware to not need wireless software installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.218-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Remove wireless-tools package via yum Actual results: Processing Dependency: libiw.so.29()(64bit) for package: rhpl Processing Dependency: rhpl for package: system-config-language Processing Dependency: rhpl >= 0.6 for package: system-config-boot Processing Dependency: rhpl for package: system-config-date Processing Dependency: rhpl >= 0.148.2 for package: system-config-lvm Processing Dependency: rhpl for package: firstboot Processing Dependency: rhpl for package: system-config-firewall-tui Processing Dependency: rhpl for package: system-config-users Processing Dependency: rhpl >= 0.53 for package: system-config-keyboard Processing Dependency: rhpl >= 0.193 for package: system-config-network-tui Processing Dependency: rhpl for package: system-config-rootpassword Processing Dependency: system-config-network-tui = 1.5.95-1.fc10 for package: system-config-network Processing Dependency: system-config-firewall-tui = 1.2.13-2.fc10 for package: system-config-firewall Expected results: wireless tools should be uninstalled without taking away seemingly unrelated system configuration tools. Additional info:
Harald -- can we move the network bits out of rhpl and into system-config-network? The only thing that uses them is system-config-network and it would be another step towards being able to remove rhpl completely.
