Description Dan Callaghan 2011-07-01 03:33:10 UTC 
atodorov has requested that Beaker not make the distro's debuginfo repos available during anaconda install. The reason is that if a package set like this is used:

%packages
*
-@conflicts

the install will nevertheless fail with conflicts due to debuginfo packages.
Comment 2 Dan Callaghan 2011-07-01 03:37:42 UTC 
A workaround is to add -*-debuginfo to the package list.

In principle making this change should be pretty easy, if we just assume that the debuginfo repos are always named "debug" or similar. But it would break other users who are relying on these repos being available during install. Looking in our beaker database I see 380 jobs which have -debuginfo packages in their package list.

Now that these are no longer default should we add to the docs how to enable these repos?

I pushed a separate commit to gerrit that covers the doc changes.
