This is *not* what the semantics of these requires lines say! The "Requires:" lines only say that after that total rpm transaction the requirements are fullfilled, they do not specify any install order. For forcing an install order, you should use "Prereq:" i.s.o. "Requires". > Am I just completely wrong to think that this install order is forceable > with requires: statements in a spec file? Yes, see above. -- -- Jos Vos <jos@xxxxxx> -- X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 -- Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Fax: +31 20 6948204
