Summary: zypp unable to handle some dependencies properly ?
Product: openSUSE 10.3
Version: Alpha 4
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Major
Priority: P5 - None
Component: libzypp
AssignedTo: kkaempf@xxxxxxxxxx

Hi..
Well this is the story.
PHP5 requires the "meta package" "smtp_daemon" which is provided by
1. exim
2. postfix
3. sendmail
zypp seems to have IMHO the wrong behaviuor, and it ends **automatically**
prefering exim wihtout any kind "dialog" asking the user what to install ( it
happends with yast and zypper)
------------------- reproduce steps ----------------------------------------
1 . Install a minimal "text mode" alpha 4
2. **after** the installation has finished, add a factory network installation
source install the php5-fastcgi package.
-------------------- actual result ------------------------------------------
both zypper and yast automatically select "exim" as the prefered package.
------------------ expected results -------------------------------------
A. the best case scenario
- A popup window in yast or a dialog in zypper asking the user what to
install, using postfix as the pre-selected alternative.
B. worst case scenario:
- pakcage manager automagically selects (or "Prefer") "postfix" and keep
going.
------------------ additional info ----------------
in this case Php5 should not "hard require" postfix, as it only needs a
sendmail compatible binary, which is provided by any of the 3 mentioned
packages.
