Just tried to do a livecd install and got:

Looks like redhat-lsb requires things like /sbin/shutdown which are provided by both sysvinit and upstart. Since upstart is "shorter" I believe it wins these.

Not sure how yum should be told that sysvinit is the preferred package to satisfy these dependencies.

(Or perhaps the problem is something completely different, I'm no expert here).

My anaconda install didn't complain, but installed upstart by default instead of sysvinit - not sure that this is expected.


Sysvinit is now split into two packages; one is still called sysvinit, one is called sysvinit-tools. Things depending on shutdown and the like need only the latter package.
