https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450261 Summary: zypper si doesn't install build dependencies Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: zypp-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bitdealer@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I`m under the impression that "zypper si package-name" should install the build dependencies for "package-name" - as well as "zypper si -d package-name". None of them does - e.g.: laptop:/usr/src/packages # zypper si freetype2 Reading installed packages... Loading repository data... Resolving package dependencies... The following source package is going to be installed: freetype2 Overall download size: 1.4 M. After the operation, additional 1.4 M will be used. Continue? [YES/no]: Retrieving: freetype2-2.3.7-23.8.src.rpm [done (405.3 K/s)] Installing source package freetype2-2.3.7-23.8 Source package freetype2-2.3.7-23.8 successfully installed. laptop:/usr/src/packages # grep BuildRequires: /usr/src/packages/SPECS/freetype2.spec BuildRequires: zlib-devel laptop:/usr/src/packages # rpm -qa | grep zlib zlib-1.2.3-133.47 zlib-32bit-1.2.3-133.30 laptop:/usr/src/packages # zypper si -d freetype2 Reading installed packages... Loading repository data... Resolving package dependencies... The following source package is going to be installed: freetype2 Overall download size: 1.4 M. After the operation, additional 1.4 M will be used. Continue? [YES/no]: n laptop:/usr/src/packages # rpm -q zypper zypper-1.0.0-1.6 That the latest command also tries to install the source package and not only the build dependencies is probably related to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428131 but, contrary to what that report says, it installs the source package as well. -- 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.
