Hi, I've been on and off this list for a while, and I've now built custom installations of RH 7.1, RH8, and soon, RH 9, and it's gotten a little bett each time. This time around, I'd like to actually have something that I can feed a list of required packages (say, the meaty part of a kickstart.cfg), and have it troll through my pile of rpms to pick up those files, everything needed by anaconda to run the install, and all of their dependencies. I don't seem to see anything like that. The most automated that I've found is the build_distro kit by Michale Fratoni, which I used last time around. In any case, at this point, I'd like any information that people could point me to for: o. Given a list of rpms, how do I satisfy their dependencies? o. How do I use the python rpm module? (I cannot find documentation) o. What files are required by anaconda to get things installed? Any ideas or advice? -- Adam Haberlach | "We spent the 90's all trying to figure out adam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | how to get email and the 00's trying to http://mediariffic.com | figure out how to not get email." | -- Joe Gross
