RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Marizol Martinez 2009-06-17 17:01:18 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #472630 +++

Description of problem:

redhat-lsb package doesn't split core and graphics.  This means that
scripts that use lsb_release or init.d scripts that use
/lib/lsb/init-functions pull in dependencies for the X Windowing System.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

All

--- Additional comment from thayne on 2008-11-21 23:51:30 EDT ---

BTW, the current bundling of LSB capabilities means that packages that want to use LSB core for portability now can't use it on any Linux distribution because the package must be usable when the X Windowing System is explicitly uninstalled.  Please consider breaking out the dependencies in a way similar to Debian:

lsb - Linux Standard Base 3.2 support package
lsb-appchk3 - LSB v3.x Application checking tool
lsb-base - Linux Standard Base 3.2 init script functionality
lsb-build-base3 - LSB v3.x Development tools base package
lsb-build-cc3 - LSB v3.x Development environment lsbcc package
lsb-build-desktop3 - LSB v3.x Development tools desktop package
lsb-core - Linux Standard Base 3.2 core support package
lsb-cxx - Linux Standard Base 3.2 C++ support package
lsb-desktop - Linux Standard Base 3.2 Desktop support package
lsb-graphics - Linux Standard Base 3.2 graphics support package
lsb-languages - Linux Standard Base 3.2 Runtime Languages package
lsb-multimedia - Linux Standard Base 3.2 Multimedia package
lsb-pkgchk3 - LSB v3.x package checking tool
lsb-printing - Linux Standard Base 3.2 Printing package
lsb-qt4 - Linux Standard Base 3.2 Qt4 support package
lsb-release - Linux Standard Base version reporting utility
lsb-rpm - Red Hat package manager for LSB package building

This provides fine-grained dependencies for packages that want to pull in distro-specific packages.

--- Additional comment from pertusus on 2008-12-17 20:27:09 EDT ---

At first
lsb-base
lsb-core
lsb-cxx
lsb-desktop

would be already much better. Fine grained sub packages as debian does may be nice, bit not that necessary in my opinion.

--- Additional comment from matt_domsch on 2009-04-15 16:47:53 EDT ---

I spoke with Mats Wichman at the Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit last week, and he agrees that there should be finer-grained packages than what is present today.
Comment 2 Marizol Martinez 2010-01-14 22:46:00 UTC 
The corresponding RHEL 4 BZ for this request is 472630.
Comment 3 Lawrence Lim 2010-01-15 06:33:40 UTC 
Package has been updated and build into brew.

This is certification, not Desktop QE.  Looking for the correct qa contact.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
