I am just applying the latest C6 updates to a couple of KVM Linodes.
It appears that the latest update of util-linux-ng has added a new
dependency on the kernel package.
On these VMs, the kernel package is not normally installed, and the VM
runs a host-supplied kernel. But now, a "yum update" wants to install for
dependencies kernel, kernel-firmware and grubby, none of which should be
necessary in this environment.
I have allowed it on one Linode and rebooted it. All seems ok and it is
still running the host-supplied kernel, but it still grates that an
unused kernel should have been required to be installed.
Is this an error in util-linux-ng, or a real new requirement?
Cheers
Tony
