[ATrpms-users] openafs-client broken, wrong dependency

[Andreas Mueller]

Hello,

the package openafs-client-1.4.1-8.fc5.at.i386.rpm is broken (output 
from "apt-get install openafs-client"):
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  openafs-client: Depends: openafs-kernel but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

This is a packaging error, below is an excerpt from 
http://dl.atrpms.net/all/openafs.spec:

%package client
Requires: binutils, openafs-kernel, openafs = %{evr}
Summary: OpenAFS Filesystem Client
Group: Networking/Filesystem
%kmdl_parentdependencies

In my opinion the correct dependencies are handled by 
the %kmdl_parentdependencies macro above, so the explicit "Requires: 
openafs-kernel" is unneeded and causing the problem here.

Regards,
Andreas.
