Item13426: RPM packages have dependency loop with epel
Priority: Normal
Current State: Needs Developer
Released In: n/a
Target Release: n/a
(09:27:02 AM) zip-kid: kinda... more a comment.
(09:28:02 AM) zip-kid: the foswiki rpm has a dependency on the epel-release rpm... which resides on epel... so you have a vicious circle there.
(09:28:37 AM) zip-kid: also, in the env i am in, epel cannot be installed as epel is mirrored internally... but foswiki cannot be installed without...
(09:28:56 AM) zip-kid: simple, epel-release must not be a packag dep.
(09:29:06 AM) zip-kid: there.
(09:29:21 AM) gac410: what is epel-release?
(09:29:35 AM) zip-kid: it installs the epel repository files
(09:29:48 AM) zip-kid: so you can next get stuff rom epel.
(09:29:55 AM) zip-kid: *from
(09:30:07 AM) ***gac410 has no idea what epel is.
(09:30:14 AM) zip-kid: the fix is simple, just remove that from the spec file.
