I have filed a bug into Red Hat bugzilla, see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196002 We have an argument with Jens (Cced) whether it is a bug in yum or a bug in package in question. To summarize, here is the problem: Conditions: Package A prerequres package B, and package B requires C. Question: Does that mean that A prerequies C, or, in other words, should C be installed before A? Can somebody advise on that? Any feedback is appreciated. Regards, Kir
