  systemtap-runtime-1.3-5.el4.x86_64

fails due dependency issue.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 8)


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install RHEL 4.8 system
2.Register it to rhn.errta.stage.redhat.com
3.up2date -u
  
Actual results:

Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies...
There was a package dependency problem. The message was:

Unresolvable chain of dependencies:
systemtap  1.3-5.el4                     requires libnspr4.so()(64bit)
systemtap  1.3-5.el4                     requires libnss3.so()(64bit)
systemtap  1.3-5.el4                     requires libplc4.so()(64bit)
systemtap  1.3-5.el4                     requires libssl3.so()(64bit)
systemtap-runtime  1.3-5.el4             requires libnspr4.so()(64bit)
systemtap-runtime  1.3-5.el4             requires libnss3.so()(64bit)


The following packages were added to your selection to satisfy dependencies:
Package                                Required by
----------------------------------------------------------------------------


Expected results:
The system is update.

Additional info:
It seems that
  systemtap-1.3-5.el4.x86_64
  systemtap-runtime-1.3-5.el4.x86_64
requires rpm package NSS.
NSS package is available on errata.stage and if installed manually solves the problem.
