I'm running /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/create_package_descr on my patched suse 8.1 install tree.
It seems to be almost working properly now.
One problem -- it somehow does not put a certain important +Prv item in the suse/setup/descr/package file. This causes the installer to complain about a dependency problem.
I manually added an entry for suseseach.cgi from the susehelp updated package.
Either their was a problem in the susehelp update or there is a problem with the create_package_descr script.
Some information is missing in /usr/share/autoinstall/EXTRA_PROV Please use the updated file from www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/EXTRA_PROV
Thanks for reporting this issue.

Anas, Thanks. I downloaded the updated EXTRA_PROV file. It fixed 2 problems. Yet now I have a similar problem with qt3-devel. It is missing a line in the +Prv: section. I had to manually add /usr/include/png.h to the +Prv: secion in suse/setup/descr/package under the qt3-devel section. Is there a different or better way to do this? Can't the create_package_descr script do a rpm -q --provides -p $rpmfile and use that data instead of the complex binary indexing stuff it is doing? I might be doing something else wrong... eric
