http://juju.org/articles/2003/02/21/prelude-rpm-dependencies-suck en-us 40 Sufficiently Advanced Technology <p>I'm running Mandrake 9.0 on my firewall at home and I remember it installed <a href="http://www.prelude-ids.org">Prelude</a> by default. I always figured I'd check it out later and left it running figuring it wouldn't hurt anything. I like <a href="http://www.snort.org">snort</a> and use it at work so I figured I'd just get rid of prelude. So I went to uninstall it and this is what I got:</p> <pre> [root@gr0k bin]# rpm -e prelude error: removing these packages would break dependencies: prelude = 0.4.2-7mdk is needed by prelude-report-0.4.2-7mdk [root@gr0k bin]# rpm -e prelude-report error: removing these packages would break dependencies: prelude-report = 0.4.2-7mdk is needed by prelude-0.4.2-7mdk </pre> <p>Uhmmm... huh? It's times like these I really miss debian.</p> Fri, 21 Feb 2003 21:43:05 -0500 urn:uuid:60115934b9d63dec5189f866f84c8135 Tony Buser http://juju.org/articles/2003/02/21/prelude-rpm-dependencies-suck Linux http://juju.org/articles/trackback/191
