Description Morgan Leijström 2013-05-08 10:31:55 CEST

Description of problem: 
  If more version of dependancy package is available,
urpmi --auto will install newest, and
drakrpm defaults to eldest version.

Version-Release number of selected component: current mga3;
rpmdrake-5.48-1.mga3.src.rpm
urpmi-7.26-1.mga3.src.rpm


How reproducible: when alternative package versions are available


Steps to Reproduce:
1) In terminal # urpmi yaflight, it asks for package alternatives in this:
 1- lib64pq9.2_5-9.2.4-1.mga3.x86_64
 2- lib64pq9.1_5-9.1.9-1.mga3.x86_64
 3- lib64pq9.0_5-9.0.13-1.mga3.x86_64
 4- lib64pq8.4_5-8.4.17-1.mga3.x86_64
and if urpmi is run with --auto (--test) it choose the newest (9.2.5)

2) Run rpmdrake, intend to install yaflight, and it asks same question, but order them backwards, and preselect the *eldest* version.
