Re: setup installs packages without displaying it


Gerrit P. Haase wrote:
Hi,

I have selected some packages checked in the partial view which packages
are active, then when installation strted several packages were
installed which were not selected.  E.g. autoconf, automake related and
such.

Since I explicitely excluded these form upgrade because I use local
patched versions, I'm somewhat shocked now.  It is really a mess.  My
local versions got uninstalled.

Additionally it hangs now at the installation of shared-mime-info-0.16-1
and I will probably get no logfile because I need to kill setup.

Any ideas?


Ok, following up myself, I got a log after hitting the cancel button,
about 80 MB in total, here are some excerpts:

Libtool requires autoconf, automake, but what requires sysvinit?  None of
the selected packages, but GConf2 which I have installed.

I'm also pretty sure that I have decided to NOT remove clear and to NOT
update to ncurses latest.  And the same for for libpcre.  Now I have NO
clear at my system, no libpcre anymore.

I think, this is bad. I cannot unselect the packages because they are
automatically selected after the package chooser.  I never wanted to
upgrade my libtool installation, btw. why was libtool selected at all?

It is really a good thing that setup notes that there MAY BE some packages
missing to fulfill requirements, however, it cannot know it for sure, i.e.
if I use my own versions of some packages, and It MUST NOT add packages
to the installation list on its own behalf!

	
This setup.exe is trash, I'll revert to some older version now.

Good day,
Gerrit
