new ovirt-deps repo package

Hi, I got a question regarding the newly introduced deps package which installs epel etc: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1082013 How does this handle already installed EPEL repositorys? would this conflict somehow? Looking at the code at: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/26330/8/ovirt-el-deps.repo you restrict the packages to those needed by ovirt. Maybe I don't know yum internals enough, but doesn't this break if other packages from epel are already installed? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.

If you have already epel-release package installed you'll have access to the whole epel repository. If you haven't it, the new dependency repo will allow you to get needed dependencies.
would this conflict somehow?
No

yes, only for "ovirt-epel" repository not for the one provided by epel-release rpm.
Maybe I don't know yum internals enough, but doesn't this break if other packages from epel are already installed?
No, as long as you also have epel-release with the other packages from epel. -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology. Faster innovation. Powered by community collaboration. See how it works at redhat.com
