Description of problem: This package has bind as a dependency, but that dependency is not satisfied when using bind97. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-bind-4.0.3-4.el5 bind97-9.7.0-6.P2.el5 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. On fully updated v5.6 system, replace the bind-* packages with bind97 equivalents 2. Run "package-cleanup --problems" 3. Actual results: # package-cleanup --problems Setting up yum Reading local RPM database Processing all local requires Missing dependencies: Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils Package tog-pegasus requires bind-utils Package system-config-bind requires bind Package system-config-bind requires bind-utils Expected results: bind97-* packages should satisfy bind-* dependencies.

It is unbelievable that this is still languishing over a year after the creation of this Bugzilla entry. Are packaging incompatibilities really so low-priority that you guys can't get out a tweaked spec file for RHEL versions 5.6, 5.7 and now 5.8? Jeez!
In my opinion this isn't a bug. bind97 and bind have many differences in their configurations so system-config-bind is not usable to configure bind97. Due to this reason I think it's correct that s-c-b requires bind and bind97 doesn't satisfy this dependency.
Adam, thank you for comment. Bind97 package really does not satisfy the Bind dependency. Correctly removed bind and bind-utils packages (using yum remove) removes system-config-bind too - so there should be no left over on your system. A brief test shown, it's possible to change s-c-b to support Bind 97 (at least partially). But it's not supportable. If you wish to use s-c-b with Bind 97, please report RFE.
