Hi,

I'm currently trying to fix prereqs for ubuntu systems, and I've just found 
that it seems that we need a full review of all the prereq.cfg files.

For example, on ubuntu, in the base/prereq.cfg, reference to mysql-server-5.0 
AND mysql-server is in the common part (ubuntu:*:*), and the mysql-server is 
also in specific parts. Then looking at oda/prereq.cfg, we also have 
mysql-server-5.0 in generic section.

According to http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/database/mysql-server , the 
mysql-server is a meta-package that depend on latest mysql-server.

So if I'm correctly understanding this, we should only need mysql-server, not 
mysql-server-5.5 which would automaticaly get installed by mysql-server 
requirements. (I'm not familiar at all with debian based systems, so if I'm 
wrong, please tell me).

More over, I don't understand wy we have reference to mysql in bothe 
base/prereq.cfg and oda/prereq.cfg. Should there be only one reference in 
oda/prereq.cfg instead?

Then, regarding optimization, is the generic bloc ignored if a matching block 
is found?
I mean, if there is a [ubuntu:1210:*], will the [ubuntu:*:*] be parsed as well? 
(For the moment, I'll assume this is not the case).

I'll test removing mysql from base/prereq.cfg and updating oda/prereq.cfg and 
see if it's better.

Regards,

Olivier.
