Hi all,
some of you maybe know me, i'am that guy who gets on everybodys nervs
with his script he wrote to build the page
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Server/ServersOverview_alpha
this weekend i've added some libs to the blacklist. It was xorg, x11 and
gtk2. I've used them via the
http://skvidal.wordpress.com/2008/09/05/more-yum-tools-that-we-havent-reall…
deps script and just count the output of grep xorg and so one.
What was really strange is that every package of our current list has
them as dependecys, like
30 for gtk2 in firebird
0 for xorg in firebird
15 for x11 in firebird
30 for gtk2 in mysql
0 for xorg in mysql
15 for x11 in mysql
30 for gtk2 in postgresql
0 for xorg in postgresql
15 for x11 in postgresql
this 30 and 15 are shown up in every package excluding db4 and sqlite.
I thought that my script could be wrong so i've tested it on centos too
(with epel)
0 for gtk2 in firebird
0 for xorg in firebird
0 for x11 in firebird
0 for gtk2 in mysql
0 for xorg in mysql
0 for x11 in mysql
0 for gtk2 in postgresql
0 for xorg in postgresql
0 for x11 in postgresql
only
0 for gtk2 in trytond
6 for xorg in trytond
6 for x11 in trytond
seems to be related on X in centos (mrtg and nagios too)
So,
finally it seems that there is something wrong in the package behaviour
of fedora, cause the seem to need an x related dependency every time.
I attached both, the fedora output of my script and the centos one.
So it seems that there is no need for our SIG, and i dont understand why
it works in epel and not in fedora itself.
Well much to think about
Kind regards
Joerg
