Re: [opensuse-autoinstall] Problem with Pattern Prq verses Prc Packages
Uwe's response to an earlier question suggested removing unwanted packages using "<remove- packages>". There are 121 packages in the suggested list (+ what ever dependencies they are pulling in). Would this mean that these are all installed and then removed?
No it doesn't. Autoyast will work out the final list of packages to install (including dependencies) before starting the install. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks Yan. I just tried putting all the packages in the Prc (suggested) list in a remove-packages list, to find that the install no longer works, which I think is what Uwe was telling me a couple of posts ago. To me suggested means optional, but it obviously doesn't in this case. The first package that failed to install was grub, which said that it needed /bin/sh, which is provided by bash, which is in the required list. Bash needs readline which is in the suggested list, so bash didn't install. I got into the same loop with the kernel-default package. Either I am missing something here or the base pattern definition is badly broken. Does anyone have a <remove-packages> list for the base pattern that they can share? I want to start with the smallest possible install. Thanks Mike Yan Fitterer wrote:

I think you are right, the pattern definitions are not in a very good shape. I'm sorry for that. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug now playing Covenant - Happy Man -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It would appear that it is being worked on.
