When installing xmlto, it says texlive-texmf is required as a dependency. But once it's installed, you can uninstall texlive-texmf with no complains that xmlto requires it. This breaks xmlto and makes it unable to convert XML files into PDF documents. Happens on both Mageia 1 and Cauldron.
Source RPM: (none) => texlive-texmf

can you show me the urpmi messages ? seems OK in cauldron here .
Which urpmi messages? I use rpmdrake to install/uninstall packages.
just to confirm i have understood all, texlive-texmf should be required by xmlto because w/o it xmlto doesn't work OK ?
