           Summary: cannot install grace if grace-devel is installed
           Product: urpmi
           Version: 4.4-34mdk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: packaging
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


urpmi reports "Everything already installed" when trying to install grace if 
grace-devel is  
alreadey installed.  
  
It seems that if foo-bar is installed then "urpmi foo" reports "Everything already 
installed"  
In order to install grace, I had to do  
urpmi grace-5  
  
A temporary workaround is urpmi -a grace, but I have a script that enforces a standard 
build for  
my users and if I decide that perl and perl-gtk are in the standard but other perl are 
not, using  
urpmi -a perl would install all perl packages.  
My script takes my std pkg list and isuue a urpmi <pkg1> <pkg2> <pkg3> ....  
replacing urpmi with urpmi -a would lead to extra packages installed.  
  
Here is a demo:  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# urpmi grace-devel  
installing 
/crm/Install/Mandrake/9.1/i586/Mandrake/RPMS2/grace-devel-5.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm  
  
Preparing...                ##################################################  
   1:grace-devel            ##################################################  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# urpmi grace  
Everything already installed  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# urpmi grace-5  
installing /crm/Install/Mandrake/9.1/i586/Mandrake/RPMS2/grace-5.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm  
  
Preparing...                ##################################################  
   1:grace                  ##################################################  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]#  
  
(It was done on a MDK9.1 urpmi-4.2-34.1mdk but also applies to recent cookers. If you 
need  
more demo on cooker, I'll be able to past a demo from my collegue cooker laptop which 
is not  
present on site at this time)
