Thanks for that. That's quite hard to do without breaking dependancies. Is there any way to generate a dependency list from the comp file? -- Ian Leonard
Not that I have seen. You can use the /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/check-repository.py script to check for errors in the comps file, but I cannot remember if it checks for dependencies. rpm -qpR /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/whatever.rpm will check for the required elements for the whatever.rpm package.
Others have posted a base set of packages, so you may be able to find something in the archives.
