By trial and error I found that if I ommitted boa (a lightweight web server) then pkgorder would complete successfully. I tried to rebuild the .src.rpm for RH 9, but still got the original error. boa explicitly provides webserver, and so does httpd-2.0.40-21. I was trying to install both. I think this confuses pkgorder. If I removed the 'Provides:' line in the boa spec file and rebuilt it, then pkgorder complted without errors. So for my particular setup the problem is solved. In general I think this points to a bug (or at least a limitation) in pkgorder. Should I bugzilla this? Regards, Chris
