Description Jonathan Kamens 2001-09-12 00:24:07 UTC 
It is unreasonable for the XFree86 RPM to have a dependency on kernel-drm,
because if someone isn't using an XFree86 4.1.0 server, they really don't
need kernel-drm.

The XFree86 4.1.0 servers should be split into a separate RPM, so that
people who are using an XFree86 3.3.6 server can choose not to install that
RPM and thus avoid the incorrect dependency.

Deferring for future consideration.
Comment 2 Mike A. Harris 2001-11-01 03:29:20 UTC 
I've decided against changing this from the way it is now.
