So the difference appears to be that dracut in F16 requires plymouth, while dracut in F17 does not. This appears to be the change in dracut: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=dracut.git;a=commitdiff;h=6adbc8b2385f395f211937b707b0c0c321179e3f which changes it from requiring a particular plymouth version to conflicting with any older plymouth version. I'm not sure if we need to re-add an explicit dependency on plymouth in dracut, or add a dependency elsewhere, or add plymouth to comps. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
