Yum: strange dependencies

02-04-2010, 09:25 AM

Hi all,
On Centos 5.4 minimum installation, I tried to install these packages
(notice the dependencies):
================================================== ================================================== ===============
Package Arch Version
Repository Size
================================================== ================================================== ===============
Installing:
mc i386 1:4.6.1a-35.el5
base 2.1 M
mdadm i386 2.6.9-2.el5
base 827 k
ntp i386
4.2.2p1-9.el5.centos.2.1 updates 1.3 M
sudo i386 1.6.9p17-5.el5
base 218 k
Installing for dependencies:
exim i386 4.63-3.el5
base 1.2 M
mysql i386 5.0.77-4.el5_4.1
updates 4.8 M
perl i386 4:5.8.8-27.el5
base 12 M
perl-DBI i386 1.52-2.el5
base 600 k
postgresql-libs i386 8.1.18-2.el5_4.1
updates 196 k

Transaction Summary
================================================== ================================================== ===============
Install 9 Package(s)
Update 0 Package(s)
Remove 0 Package(s)

Total download size: 23 M

I didn't want all those dependencies, especially exim and mysql. So,
instead of installing mc, mdadm, ntp, and sudo at the same time, I
installed them one by one and this time no exim and mysql (mc still
wanted perl, fine) dependencies. Any thought why was that? Thank you.

I mean have you used 'exclude' to exclude yum dependencies packages before?
