I just checked core's x86_64 packages and there are exactly 12 files in such dependencies affecting 18 packages out of 2422 (that's 0.7%): cman-kernel dlm-kernel gamin-python gdm GFS-kernel gnbd-kernel httpd ImageMagick-perl inn libvirt-python libxml2-python libxslt-python openldap-servers openmotif openssh-server python-lcms redhat-lsb vsftpd That's 0.7%. I thought that the problem was much larger. I either miscalculated the number of file dependencies or there is no problem :) (At least not one that has to be solved by creating new guidelines, most of these packages like lsb or kernel modules seem to need special handling anyway) -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
