If you can reproduce it, could you please run rpmdrake --verbose and send *full* console output (including anything from rpminst and grpmi) explaining what exactly have you done (which packages you selected and what packages remained in listing) and file /root/tmp/rpminst.log? It seems there are problems with remote medias and I have tested only local, I have to think how to setup remote. Some explanation - many people (me including) complained that if installation failed packages are blindly removed from list and you have to reselect them again. I tried to parse rpminst output and to remove only those packages that has really been installed. Obviously it does not always work, rpmdrake somwtimes thinks packages has not been installed when it actually was and I need as many test cases (including rpminst output in the first place) as possible. Alternative is to rescan lists after every installation. I am afraid of people starting complaining that it is too slow. I want to hear comment about it? That will be much simpler actually for some other reasons (currently we do not know if RPM has been installed or updated so cannot properly update installed list anyway). May be it will be possible to rescan just installed packages list that is faster. Sorry for confusion. -andrej
