IMO openmpi-devel-1.5.4-4.1.4 may depend on openmpi bot not openmpi-1.5.4-4.1.4 on openmpi-devel. In a system with both installed I cannot 'rpm -e' either of them because they depend circularly. SIU-11:~ # rpm -e openmpi-devel error: Failed dependencies: openmpi-devel is needed by (installed) openmpi-1.5.4-4.1.4.x86_64 SIU-11:~ # rpm -e openmpi error: Failed dependencies: libmca_common_sm.so.2()(64bit) is needed by (installed) openmpi-devel-1.5.4-4.1.4.x86_64 openmpi = 1.5.4 is needed by (installed) openmpi-devel-1.5.4-4.1.4.x86_64 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Package libboost_mpi1 should be installed into an openSuse 12.2 KIWI-Appliance but no -devel-Packages are desired. 2. Should also occur in existing systems when installing Package libboost_mpi1 3. Even post-boot deinstallation of -devel -Packages failed. 4. But that gave the opportunity to track the dependencies. Actual Results: openmpi is automatically added for dependency reasons. openmpi-devel seems to also be pulled into the Appliance Even more -devel -Packages will be pulled into the Appliance Image, even libstdc++-devel Expected Results: No -devel Packages should occur in the Appliance when selecting Package libboost_mpi1 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
