Shortest name wins, so atlas gets pulled in (when it doesn't actually meet a needed dependency). I would think the bug is in the atlas packaging; the RPM shouldn't list a shared lib outside the standard directories as a provide. This is similar to mrtg vs. perl-SNMP_Session; mrtg has its own private copy of the SNMP_Session perl modules, but they are found by the auto-provides (so the RPM lists them). Then mrtg is a shorter name than perl-SNMP_Session, so a package requiring "perl(SNMP_Session)" gets a broken install. -- Chris Adams <[email protected]> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. _______________________________________________ epel-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/epel-devel-list
