The issue is rather different than described. Suggests: added using RPMSENSE_MISSINGOK (as PLD does) will never cause a dependency loop while ordering. Howvere, Suggests: are promoted to Requires: when the suggestion is accepted. That's the issue that glen is worrying abt. Meanwhile, I just gave glen a patch that will display LOOP: messages always, not just when -vv is specified. The noise from displaying LOOP: whenever a dependency loop is found is surely gonna drown out the rather minor and technical detail of whether a promoted Suggests: -> Requires: causes an additional loop. Hint: read up on using %_dependency_whiteout to snip loops deterministically. The better fix, changing the packaging to not have any loops, is a much harder issue to solve. hth 73 de Jeff > -- > Tomasz Pala <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > _______________________________________________ > pld-devel-en mailing list > pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org > http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
