It is mandatory to include basesystem in the list of package, check you have done that (normaly requires should be good but... base package are always installed and could lead to missing dependencies ?)
[SBE] Indeed, it is in the filelist. Do you mean that I have to install a list of basic packages first then all the others ?
> Maybe the dependency list is not right for certain packages.
What gives urpmq --list | grep to check repository is right.
[SBE] All packages are there.
> For example: perl-URPM does not need perl ???
It requires perl-base and not perl, that's normal (maybe a bad example).
[SBE] My mistake. The point is if I give the list of the packages on one single line, the order of package
[SBE] installation is wrong in the way I described in my previous mail.
[SBE] I was expecting that given a full list of packages, the installation should have gone smooth.
[SBE] In fact it hasn't. I don't know if the culprit is the urpmi, the rpm or the packages dependencies.
[SBE] My workaround is to do 2 urpmi : one for the packages that must absolutely be installed before
[SBE] And another one to install the rest.
[SBE] In the first one, I have :
[SBE] filesystem libtermcap2 perl fileutils glibc rpm-helper SysVinit initscripts sh-utils
[SBE] But basicaly, the package openssh-server should not be installed before the package rpm-helper if its
[SBE] postinstall script try to invoke add-service for example.
