Yes, we could still do it with yum. But if we do that in livecd, that means the livecd backend requires yum which isn't so good. And if we do it in packages.py like Jeremy suggests, but with yum, then all possible backends will require yum, which is even worse. Practically, it makes little difference. We don't have any other backends in anaconda that use something other than rpm+yum, and our separation is really pretty half-assed. But it's what we've got to work with. > if I'm missing something about what the goal is here, let me know. The goal is simply to tell whether or not there's anything installed that provides service(graphical-login) so we know to set the default runlevel to 5. - Chris _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
