Clean deps in the default install.

Comment 1 Adam Williamson 2010-02-23 17:51:54 UTC 
there's a newer version of nouveau that should be in the build. as the update notes say:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/mesa-7.8-0.18.fc13,xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.16-2.20100218git2964702.fc13,kernel-2.6.33-0.47.rc8.git1.fc13,libdrm-2.4.18-0.1.fc13

"This breaks the driver ABI, so all pieces required."

I guess RC2 pulled a newer kernel without the matching nouveau / libdrm - not Ben's fault. re-assigning to releng.

forgot 'mesa' in the above list.
Comment 3 Andre Robatino 2010-02-23 19:26:47 UTC 
Why doesn't the procedure in

pick this up?  (Not familiar with the repoclosure command.)

Well, I can say we figured out why the automated rats_sanity test was not discovering this issue.  Will Woods found a bug and provided an update.

http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=autoqa.git;a=commit;h=deb0d2bacde2173e40d5faff04b810ebc5a4c438

Interestingly, when I run the above test case with the '-n' repoclosure flag, it correctly finds this failure.

$ repoclosure --repofrompath=media,/media -a x86_64 -a noarch -r media -n
Added media repo from /media

I've fixed this in later RC composes to include the newer nouveau driver.
