Well, except that it'll obviously break with rpm-python versions where the rpm.RPMSENSE_SCRIPT_PRE or rpm.RPMSENSE_SCRIPT_POST constants don't exist but based on some source diving, that means rpm < 4.0.2. RHEL 5 (I checked sources up to 4.4.2.3-7.el5) is one of those distros that have their rpm patched to the upstream rpm < 4.4 behaviour where RPMSENSE_PREREQ is not 0. So the only thing I assume it would change on it would be that it might start to treat Requires(pre) and Requires(post) in addition to PreReq as "pre" dependencies in this context (unless it already did through some other means) which I think is only a good thing. _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
