Description David GEIGER 2011-06-09 17:25:59 CEST
Hello all the team Mageia,

Description of problem:

I do not know if it's a bug or not, but on the MLO forum member raised an issue.

http://www.mageialinux-online.org/forum/topic-10448+ccm-centre-de-control-mageia.php

He uninstall "sane" and actually lost "drakconf".
I tried myself with the CCM and he actually wants to remove some dependencies.
Here:

Pour satisfaire les dépendances, le ou les paquetages suivants doivent aussi être supprimés :

- drakconf-12.21.9-2.mga1.noarch
- harddrake-ui-13.58-1.mga1.x86_64
- hplip-3.11.3a-5.mga1.x86_64
- hplip-gui-3.11.3a-5.mga1.x86_64
- lib64sane-hpaio1-3.11.3a-5.mga1.x86_64
- sane-frontends-1.0.14-11.mga1.x86_64
- task-printing-hp-2010-4.mga1.x86_64
- task-scanning-2009.1-4.mga1.noarch
- xsane-gimp-0.998-1.mga1.x86_64

Is this normal or is this a bug?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

I use Mageia release 1 (Official) for x86_64 and kernel desktop 2.6.38.7.


Here I thank you in advance.

harddrake-ui depends on sane-backends so this is expected (already found on the forum I see).

hplip now also depends on sane-backends because of bug #792 - that explains the removal of the printing packages.

So it's probably not a good idea to remove sane-backends.
