It seems to be fixed at least in 2.14-2: # rpm -q perl-XML-Simple perl-XML-Simple-2.14-2 # rpm -qR perl-XML-Simple expat perl-XML-Parser perl = 5.8.7 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1 rpmlib(PayloadIsBzip2) <= 3.0.5-1 Anyway I don't see any problem to force the option also for the systemimager-server package (it should be enough).
