Hi Andrea: For now I have put "bittorrent" in OSCAR's base prereqs, meaning that the package will be installed prior to SIS being installed. This is not ideal (IMHO) but does work.
If nobody from OSCAR objects, I will leave it at that. Basically the issue is that in SystemImager 3.7.6, bittorrent RPM dependency was removed such that RPMs can be distro-neutral (SuSE calls it BitTorrent, RH/FC calls it bittorrent). There is also a check for bittorrent binaries in the %pre script, if it couldn't find them the installation of systemimager-bittorrent would fail. This can't be bypassed simply by adding bittorrent to SIS' config.xml, since there is no ordering involved.
