Hello, I think there is a typo in AutoInstallRules.ycp (version 1.34.4.9 that comes with SLES9 SP2): the xsltproc to merge classes is called with the following param there (line 733): --param dontmerge \"'package, addon'\" and I'm quite sure that it sould be: --param dontmerge \"'package'\" --param dontmerge2 \"'addon'\" The result of this typo is that neither <package> nor <addon> are correctly aggregated, which is the desired effect I believe and I also hope. Quick demonstration: idhpb02:/ # cat /tmp/a.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE profile SYSTEM "/usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/profile.dtd"> <profile xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http:// www.suse.com/1.0/configns"> <install> <software> <addons config:type="list"> <addon>addon-A</addon> </addons> <packages config:type="list"> <package>package-A</package> </packages> </software> </install> </profile> idhpb02:/ # cat /tmp/b.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE profile SYSTEM "/usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/profile.dtd"> <profile xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http:// www.suse.com/1.0/configns"> <install> <software> <addons config:type="list"> <addon>addon-B</addon> </addons> <packages config:type="list"> <package>package-B</package> </packages> </software> </install> </profile> Calling it the wrong way: idhpb02:/ # xsltproc --novalid --param replace "'false'" --param dontmerge "'package, addon'" --param with "'/tmp/b.xml'" /usr/share/ autoinstall/xslt/merge.xslt /tmp/a.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <ns1:profile xmlns:ns1="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns" xmlns="http:// www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns"> <ns1:install> <ns1:software> <ns1:addons config:type="list"> <ns1:addon>addon-B</ns1:addon> </ns1:addons> <ns1:packages config:type="list"> <ns1:package>package-B</ns1:package> </ns1:packages> </ns1:software> </ns1:install> </ns1:profile> Calling it the (as I think) right way: idhpb02:/ # xsltproc --novalid --param replace "'false'" --param dontmerge "'package'" --param dontmerge2 "'addon'" --param with "'/ tmp/b.xml'" /usr/share/autoinstall/xslt/merge.xslt /tmp/a.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <ns1:profile xmlns:ns1="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns" xmlns="http:// www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns"> <ns1:install> <ns1:software> <ns1:addons config:type="list"> <ns1:addon>addon-A</ns1:addon><ns1:addon>addon-B</ns1:addon> </ns1:addons> <ns1:packages config:type="list"> <ns1:package>package-A</ns1:package><ns1:package>package-B</ ns1:package> </ns1:packages> </ns1:software> </ns1:install> </ns1:profile> Could this be fixed? Or is it already known and possibly a workaround in existance? Thanks in advance, -Luzian
