Description Radek Bíba 2009-04-22 08:40:28 EDT

Description of problem:
If no specific release is required, which is the case of amanda-devel, -server and -client subpackages, rpm won't complain if a user tries to update only the base package, or just a subset of subpackages. This can lead to inconsistencies in installed packages and malfunction caused by incompatibility.

Please replace all occurrences of "Requires(pre): amanda = %{version}" with "Requires(pre): amanda = %{version}-%{release}".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
amanda-2.5.0p2-4

Comment 2 Daniel Novotny 2009-04-24 05:19:40 EDT

fixed in amanda-2.5.0p2-6.el5
