Description Michal Jaegermann 2003-06-03 22:20:23 UTC 
Description of problem:

The program offers a possibility to install more packages with three
choices of "Documentation", "Install" and "Extra" CDs (or something pretty
close).  When taken on that it whirls for a while, says something about
building dependency trees and returns to the same screen without giving
any choices.  I tried with installation CDs and punching both
"Installation" and "Extra" buttons. Results were the same.  Presumably
this is not an intended outcome.

comps.py is in flux right now while modify it to handle multiple arches.  Until
that is finished, the package tool will probably not work except for installing
packages that have no dependencies.
Comment 2 Brent Fox 2003-07-14 20:31:05 UTC 
Changing to redhat-config-packages since that is the correct component.

This should be happier now.
