dropped-ibmsis.patch
I wonder if we can't use real dependencies for that kind of thing now. Those hard-coded package lists look awfully error-prone to me. Fully agreed, they are error prone. For PCI hardware, we have 'modutils' dependencies (see http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp/Dependencies/Hardware) In this specific case (ibmsis), its a mainboard/cpu dependency which probably can only be expressed by HAL. libzypp supports HAL dependencies, but HAL doesn't provide the needed information - yet. For now, we have to live with Packages.ycp will this work in SP1? If so, iprutils, mouseemu and maybe the other listed ppc packages can be switched to the modalias stuff. I plan to use the few Apple PCI bridges or whatever will fit. The modalias dependencies are fully supported in Code10 Olaf, according to comment #4 -- which packages can be removed from the hardcoded list? just use the attached patch for 10.2 OK, submitted in yast2-packager-2.14.9 |
