+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #586941 +++ Description of problem: v7 requires rpms not found in RHEL6: Rechecking required rpms The following rpms are required for testing: qemu-kvm-tools system-config-display Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): v7 1.1 R23 RHEL 6 beta 1 --- Additional comment from gcase on 2010-06-10 17:15:41 EDT --- This persists in v7 1.2-3. The tool still asks for system-config-display to be installed, but it doesn't exist. By the way, why are these dependencies not called out in the RPM itself? I install using a yum repo for the v7 package, bus system-config-displayt I'm still left with missing dependencies when I complete the install. This is the exact reason people use @everything installs when they try to cert RHEL.

(y|n) --- Additional comment from gcase on 2010-06-10 17:18:59 EDT --- Still in 1.2-5, too. --- Additional comment from gnichols on 2010-06-10 20:50:34 EDT --- system-config-display is only required for the video test, which may not apply to some systems. Similarly, virtualization testing is not applicable to all systems. So v7 now defers some rpm installation to follow test planning, so as not to require (via rpm spec) rpms on systems where they're not applicable. Note that you can answer "n" to the second prompt, and continue testing. I suspect the video test may fail. Is there some other impact of this bug that I'm missing?
I don't see this problem on RHEL6 Snapshot 6, x86_64. v7 installs qemu-kvm-tools without incident.

Like was mentioned above, I see it complaining about system-config-display. Is this package still available in RHEL6? It doesn't seem to be in the latest tree: http://download.devel.redhat.com/nightly/RHEL6.0-20100617.n.0/6.0/Workstation/x86_64/os/Workstation/Packages/
Evan: see Bug #586941 Snapshot 7 also has qemu-kvm-tools Closing this.
