Description of problem: The new kernel 'kernel-desktop-3.2.6-2.mga2' was intalled as an update, I rebooted the computer. When trying to remove the old kernel 'kernel-desktop-3.2.6-0.rc1.1.mga2' i got the following error. Because of their dependencies, the following package(s) also need to be removed: - x11-driver-video-1.0.0-37.mga2.x86_64 - x11-driver-video-nouveau-0.0.16-0.20111203.2.mga2.x86_64 0B of additional disk space will be used. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-desktop-3.2.6-2.mga2-1-1.mga2 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to get rid of the unused kernel 'kernel-desktop-3.2.6-0.rc1.1.mga2' 2. a request to remove 2 packages related to x11-driver-video will appear
I'll confirm that bug and add I am running ATI/AMD driver no less. Thought I would urpme x11-driver-video-nouveau but it wanted to remove x11-driver-video, so I left everything alone.

Confirmed. Here's why: # urpmq --requires x11-driver-video-nouveau | grep nouv --requires behaviour changed, use --requires-recursive to get the old behaviour kmod(nouveau) libdrm_nouveau.so.1()(64bit) # urpmq --whatprovides 'kmod(nouveau)' kernel-tmb-laptop-3.2.5-1.mga2|kernel-rt-3.2.2-0.rt10.1.mga2|kernel-tmb-desktop-3.2.5-1.mga2|kernel-tmb-server-3.2.5-1.mga2|kernel-vserver-3.2.2-1.mga2|kernel-linus-3.2.5-1.mga2

Ah, kmod.prov in rpm-setup does only look for .ko and .ko.gz so it needs to be fixed for .ko.xz I'll fix it tonight unless someone beats me to it.
