Excellent! Thank you Phillip....
This worked with one slight modification. pkgorder requires 2
parameters to be fed to it: <path> <arch>
Also it appears there are still some path dependencies that are as yet
configurable. You can see my base dir below is /home/websites/fc3. Here
are the contents of that dir:
drwxr-xr-x 5 jwigdahl jwigdahl 4096 Nov 22 10:40 Fedora
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1 Nov 18 10:08 i386 -> .
drwxr-xr-x 3 jwigdahl jwigdahl 4096 Nov 12 13:41 images
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Nov 22 10:45 RedHat -> Fedora
Note the i386 and RedHat symlinks. These appear to be required for my
setup.
My final working routine:
BASE=/home/websites/fc3
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/genhdlist --productpath Fedora $BASE
PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/anaconda /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/pkgorder $BASE
i386 > /tmp/fc3.pkgorder
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/genhdlist --withnumbers --fileorder
/tmp/fc3.pkgorder --productpath Fedora $BASE

Package order - try this (changing pathnames where appropriate):
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/genhdlist /export/redhat/rhel3
PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/anaconda /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/pkgorder >
/tmp/rhel.pkgorder
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/genhdlist \
--withnumbers \
--fileorder /tmp/pkg.rhel3.order \
/export/redhat/rhel3
The reason it breaks is that anaconda used to do the package-sort for
you, which takes time ("Preparing RPM transaction" IIRC). This stage
was
moved into the genhdlist stage. (By package order I mean that gawk
has to go on before sendmail, because it's used in the %post script.)
hwdata needs basically nothing in advance, so usually ends up first in
the list.
Cheers,
Phil
