I'm also very reluctant to change existing/useful behavior of --requires with grep -v because it breaks compatibility behavior (that I rely on while developing) on systems with @rpm.org installed. 73 de Jeff -- Regards, Per Øyvind rpm-5.4.8-dont-show-suggests-with-requires.patch __ RPM Package Managerhttp://rpm5.org Developer Communication Listrpm-devel@rpm5.org

Feel free to provide a better solution. :) I'm also very reluctant to change existing/useful behavior of --requires with grep -v because it breaks compatibility behavior (that I rely on while developing) on systems with @rpm.org installed. IIRC rpm.org hasn't implemented support for RPMSENSE_MISSINGOK on dependencies, have they? Ie. isn't there's some incompatibilities in place already? :o) Well, you know better than me, at least behaviour introduced by this patch is what's been preferred by cooker users. :) -- Regards, Per Øyvind

Feel free to provide a better solution. :) Expecting me to address your needs if foolish. I have other tasks to do than write and test an awk script.

Ie. isn't there's some incompatibilities in place already? :o) You will need to address the issue with @rpm.org, not here. Meanwhile all the reasoning and the complete implementation was done a long time ago. Using a bit that other implementations/distros choose not to honor has nothing to do with what is implemented, nor what might need to be displayed using rpm -q. Well, you know better than me, at least behaviour introduced by this patch is what's been preferred by cooker users. :) And this isn't the place to honk you cooker warez. You submitted a patch for upstream inclusion, and you have my reply. 73 de Jeff -- Regards, Per Øyvind
