Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 751068
abrt-cli shouldn't require abrt-addon-python
Last modified: 2012-06-20 03:03:38 EDT
Description of problem: As a Python programmer I wanted to stop abrt from reacting on any Python crash. I was advised to remove abrt-addon-python. However, yum remove abrt-addon-python removes also abrt-desktop and abrt-cli. If the abrt-addon-python is just an (semi-)optional engine for Python backtraces, than abrt-cli shouldn't hard require it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): abrt-2.0.4-14.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.yum remove abrt-addon-python 2. 3. Actual results: removes also abrt-desktop and abrt-cli Expected results: nothing should be removed aside from this engine Additional info:
Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
- we need to create a virtual package as abrt-desktop to pull the dependencies, so users can remove the plugins without removing the abrt-cli package
- created a new package abrt-tui which holds the abrt-cli binary and abrt-cli is now an empty package which just pulls all the required dependencies for the default setup.
Appears to be fixed as er comment #4: (In reply to comment #4) > - created a new package abrt-tui which holds the abrt-cli binary and abrt-cli > is now an empty package which just pulls all the required dependencies for the > default setup.
