--resolvedeps wasn't added as a supported option until Red Hat Linux 7.3. Where is the sample ks.cfg that you're looking at?
"the file sample.ks of that CD contains" where 'that CD' is the AS 2.1 documentation CD. So this is a docs bug.
This bug has been inappropriately marked MODIFIED. Please review the bug life cycle information at http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/bug_status.cgi Changing bug status to ASSIGNED.
(not really the IG, but that's the only docs component for AS) Tammy -- did this just get pulled in somehow as a process skew as the pensacola and hampton cds were being generated at the same time?
Yep. At first the sampleks CVS module only contained one file that was exported from CVS when the Docs CD was built. I have since changed it to have a dir per product so it doesn't happen again. The translated Docs CDs for AS are correct FWIW because they were made after I fixed the module. It is fixed for future releases in CVS so I am closing out the bug.
