Description of problem: Lot of KDE packages installed with only LXDE + XFCE installed These packages are not usefull but ask updates. Those KDE packages should not be installed, Mageia LXDE would be lighter. How reproducible: After install Steps to Reproduce: Install Alpha3 from DVD Desktop=LXDE. Then install XFCE 57 KDE packages installed and suppressed by CCM ~91 packages deleted by "urpme --auto-orphans" reboot Everything is OK Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
Thanks for the bug report. Could you provide the file /root/drakx/report.bug.gz as an attachment ? If you don't have the file, you can switch to console 2 (by pressing 'Ctrl-Alt-F2') during installation, put a floppy in floppy drive or plug a USB key/stick and type: 'bug' then press Enter. It will put report.bug on the floppy/key.

>Here is the report.bug you asked me. Please note it is a ".xz" not a ".gz" ah indeed, fixed in my stock response script. I didn't find any kde package installed with lxde with the initial install from dvd. For the XFCE part, you can run urpmi --debug task-xfce( or with -minimal) and then attach the result here
btw you are excluding your bugzilla bugs (in case you don't know)
Created attachment 4432 [details] result of "urpmi --debug task-xfce"
1° I didn't find any kde packages in the package_list.pl before. 2° Neither in the output of "urpmi --debug task-xfce" 3° My english is very poor , i don't understand what you mean by "btw you are excluding your bugzilla bugs (in case you don't know)" Before install LXDE there has been an alpha1 KDE. If i am sure i made an install alpha3 LXDE i don't remember about formatting / partition or not. But it's a default.
(In reply to epilip from comment #5) > Created attachment 4432 [details] > result of "urpmi --debug task-xfce" you need to unistall xfce to have a clean environment, and test urpmi --debug (In reply to epilip from comment #6) > 3° My english is very poor , i don't understand what you mean by "btw you > are excluding your bugzilla bugs (in case you don't know)" btw = by the way When I answered, the bugzilla interface say me that your are excluding notify (it can be modify here: https://bugs.mageia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email) In case you know, it it's ok.
Created attachment 4434 [details] Out put of " urpmi --debug task-xfce" Not any KDE packages ! Im giong to replay the same install LXDE + XFCE and i 'll tell you.
I found the reason why there is ked packakges. As i told you i replay an install from DVD alpha3 and the installer skipped the partitionning step. No choice possible, no formatting, just reuse existing partitions. That's why packages from alpha1 KDE were still there in an install LXDE + XFCE. I killed the install to play it one more to test the different choices and post a clear bug. But one choice destroyed the partitions and it has not be possible to replay the install with the skipped step of partitionning. I think this bug can be closed. Thanks
After a check in your report.bug in this seems to have been proposed: Utiliser les partitions existantes,Effacer et utiliser le disque tout entier,Partitionnement de disque personnalisé You did: Utiliser les partitions existantes And then I see: * formatting device sda1 (type ext4) * running: mkfs.ext4 -F -U 76662d3c-d446-4925-99fd-e45c9c32be74 /dev/sda1 But anyway it's ok, if you can't reproduce lets closing. Thanks for your test. Feel free to reopen in case you can again. (attachment 4434 [details] was still make in an environment with xfce)
Status: NEW => RESOLVEDResolution: (none) => INVALID
Sure. It's written in the report.bug but I did NOT. I'm sure the installer skipped the partitionning step. But, it's obvious, you won't believe me. I was very careful when i played the install as i thought it was the origin of the problem. And it is no more possible to reproduce it. Is there any other explication for that KDE remaining packages. Cause, i'm not fool I never install without formatting sda1. Anyway, closed.
Created attachment 4437 [details] new report.bug.yz
When I closed the bug I said that I lost my partitions cause I switch off during installation to test the installer cause I thought that the installer skipped formatting. So i have to install one more. I verified the sda1 was empty, the installer formatted the sda1. The same install with LXDE first then when it is done XFCE by drakconf. I have been very surprised to see that / was fat : Sys. de fichiers Taille Utilisé Dispo Uti% Monté sur /dev/sda1 9,7G 2,6G 6,6G 29% / I took a look at the packages then I saw again the KDE packages ! In the /root/drakx/report.bug.yz i did not see any choice LXDE, I hope you will.

KDE come with xfce install no ? So provide the urpmi log not installer one
I just did an install, to test this. Selected custom, unselected kde, selected lxde and xfce with no other changes to package selection. # rpm -qa|grep kde lockdev-1.0.4-0.120111007git.6.mga4 lib64lockdev1-1.0.4-0.120111007git.6.mga4 # rpm -qa|grep task|sort lxtask-0.1.4-2.mga3 meta-task-4-7.mga4 task-lxde-3-5.mga3 task-lxde-minimal-3-5.mga3 task-pulseaudio-2011.0-3.mga3 task-x11-1-3.mga3 task-xfce-minimal-4.10-3.mga3 xfce4-taskmanager-1.0.0-5.mga3 So lxde and xfce were both installed, as requested, and no kde packages. # df Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 16G 2.9G 12G 20% / Installing task-xfce after booting into the installed system is only adding To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed: Package Version Release Arch (medium "Core Release") lib64mpd1 11.8.17 3.mga3 x86_64 (suggested) task-xfce 4.10 3.mga3 noarch xfmpc 0.2.2 3.mga3 x86_64 (suggested) So it works for me.
@ Dave Hodgins It works for you. Great, but that is not what i have done. @ Manuel Hiebel I just don't know if KDE come with xfce or lxde. I don't find any urpmi.log [root@localhost ~]# find / -name "urpmi*" /usr/sbin/urpmi.addmedia /usr/sbin/urpmi /usr/sbin/urpmi.removemedia /usr/bin/urpmi.update /usr/bin/urpmi_rpm-find-leaves /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/urpmi /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/urpmi/urpmi_backend /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/urpmi/urpmi-dispatched-backend.pl /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/urpmi.mo /usr/share/doc/urpmi /usr/share/doc/urpmi/urpmi-repository-http.service /usr/share/man/man5/urpmi.files.5.xz /usr/share/man/man5/urpmi.cfg.5.xz /usr/share/man/fr/man8/urpmi.addmedia.8.xz /usr/share/man/fr/man8/urpmi.removemedia.8.xz /usr/share/man/fr/man8/urpmi.update.8.xz /usr/share/man/fr/man8/urpmi.8.xz /usr/share/man/man8/urpmi.addmedia.8.xz /usr/share/man/man8/urpmihowto.8.xz /usr/share/man/man8/urpmi.removemedia.8.xz /usr/share/man/man8/urpmi.update.8.xz /usr/share/man/man8/urpmi.8.xz /usr/share/mime/packages/urpmi-media.xml /usr/libexec/urpmi.update /var/lib/urpmi /var/cache/urpmi find: â/run/user/500/gvfsâ: Permission non accordée /etc/urpmi /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg /etc/bash_completion.d/urpmi [root@localhost ~]#
The installer uses rpmsrate-raw to install things. Could be that somehow some KDE package is listed in CAT_XFCE. See http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/meta-task/current/SOURCES/rpmsrate-raw?view=markup.

>@ Manuel Hiebel >I just don't know if KDE come with xfce or lxde. I don't find any urpmi.log No urpmi logs exist, you need to create them, as I say you in comment 7, and this when you install xfce for the first time @Olav, I see no kde package in the rpmsrate, but anyway, epilip install xfce after the reboot, and here the rpmsrate is not used with urpmi
It's the 3rt time i do, in a very attentive way, the same install alpha3 : No KDE, LXDE, no Update and after reboot XFDE. The install is different at each time. Once rpmdrake first is mandatory, other times not. Once after Xfce install, many orphans, other times not any. Once KDE packages are installed, other times not. When Mageia4 is on, (!)Mageia Updates raise. Cauldron is always moving so the tests can not be serious. I think i'm wasting my time. So i'm going to closed that bug and hope the problem will be solved later.
Well in all this thread, I have not seen you listed even any suspect rpm list... No info, closing as you said. If nobody notices or report bugs in development release, no, it will likely be still in the stable, but we need real facts.

You told i did list any suspect kde package; Yes, there are a lot of them in "new report.bug.yz". But you have not had a look at it, you presume the problem is Xfce.
