Some followup. I've made a page for removing pyxml: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Toshio/Remove_PyXML dmalcolm added the dep tree. I remember that fedora-business-card is a false dep from when this came up in February. I'll remove the dep shortly. Since SOAPpy affects so much stuff I had a look. It seems like the dep is false there as well. The README says that PyXML is needed but inspection of the code and the ChangeLog, ReleaseNotes, and the upstream scm point to that being a documentation bug; PyXML requirement was supposedly removed in 2003. -Toshio -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
