The problem is that the mandatory functionality (SysV-style initscripts compliant to our guidelines) gets pushed to a subpackage to make room for the optional and completely unneccessary junk, and that in some cases yum prefers the nonstandard subpackages. Plus, he's also violating other guidelines, e.g. for this package: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=176308 Version contains a SVN revision tag which MUST be in Release instead according to our guidelines. (Thanks to Chen Lei for pointing that out.) (And look at the mess that nonstandard versioning made to the bumping tool spot used, see the insane Release values it produced. We have versioning rules for a reason.) Kevin Kofler -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
