Dep resolving to create an install tree is different than dep solving at install time. This is because we have no idea what the user will choose as far as packages at install time, so we need to make sure all possible resolvers for deps are included. Once the user goes to install, and they've say selected they want (or need) kernel-PAE, then that particular kernel will satisfy all requirements on kernel. But if instead they want or need kernel.i586, that will take the place instead. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- All my bits are free, are yours?
