Hi,
I tested this feature a little and I find the following problem.
I have package testA that requires (testB | testC). I tried to installed it.
# rpm -i testA-1-1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
(testB | testC) is needed by testA-1-1.x86_64
# rpm -i testA-1-1.x86_64.rpm testB-1-1.x86_64.rpm
# rpm -q testA
testA-1-1.x86_64
#rpm -q testB
testB-1-1.x86_64
That's ok. Now I have successfully installed packages testA and testB. But then
I tried to uninstall package testB.
# rpm -e testB
# rpm -q testB
package testB is not installed
And this is problem I shouldn't be able to unistall package testB because it is
required by testA. This problem was created in commit 8674de47 on line 2108
in lib/rpmdb.c. The last char of string name is cut off no matter if that char
is white char or not. Try this:
# rpm -q --whatrequires testB
no package requires testB
# rpm -q --whatrequries test # Now without the last char
testA-1-1.x86_64
testA-1-1.x86_64
