From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020809 Description of problem: up2date does not do dependency check while installing gnomemeeting. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.9.46-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.make sure you don't have gnomemeeting, pwlib and openh323 rpms installed. if you do remove them by rpm -e openh323 pwlib gnomemeeting 2.install gnomemeeting via "up2date gnomemeeting" run gnomemeeting and see that it does not even start because the necessary pwlib and openh323 libs were not installed Actual Results: gnomemeeting does not start because it cannot load the shared libraries Expected Results: up2date should have resolved the dependencies and installed pwlib and openh323 Additional info: when I downloaded gnomemeeting package and wanted to install it from the command line using rpm -i gnomemeeting-0.93.1-3.i386.rpm it complained about unresolved dependencies: pwlib and openh323 so I think that this is not an rpm issue but it is an up2date issue. the same kind of story happened with up2dating octave. bug # 72026
Sounds like the same bug as bug # 72026 To be more specific, the bug itself is in rpm-python. The rpm commandline works correctly, but the part of rpm-python that is used to solve deps is busted.
fixed in RHL 8.0
