I came up against this issue while trying to install a Centos4 domU today. I painstakingly went through the list and updated it so that I could install a Centos4 domU. It started to get a little messy as the list had to have hal and dbus added. I just added hal, dbus and all of their dependencies to priority 36. This included simply changing the dependencies of everything down from 36 all the way down to where python was. It's nasty, but it worked for me.
I only updated the x86 list. I take it that the x86_64 list is much the same, but unfortunately... I don't have time to update it. Attached is the patch that can be applied to get a xen-create-image to work. Hopefully someone more skilled than myself can get it integrated into the package. I would imagine that someone needs to use anaconda's pkgorder (or whatever it is these days) to produce a slightly more elegant solution than `simply adding them all to priority 36'. I would have thought that the base version of CentOS would remain static (4)? Theoretically the package names should not need updating.... Oh well. ** Attachment added: "centos4 hack" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10457288/rpmstrap-centos.patch -- rpmstrap, centos4 package names mismatch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148005 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
