But srvadmin-base has:

[host] /root # rpm -q --whatrequires srvadmin-cm
srvadmin-base-8.4.0-2193.9883.el6.x86_64

Interestingly srvadmin-base package seems to have been degraded over its
lifetime and only looks like a dummy package, currently:

[host] /root # rpm -ql srvadmin-base
/usr/share/doc/readme-base.txt
[host] /root # cat /usr/share/doc/readme-base.txt
hi there
[host] /root # 

So, I guess, systems that upgraded OMSA over its lifetime still have
srvadmin-base (and therefore: srvadmin-cm) installed, fresh
installations do not.

Cheers,
Andreas
