Why vzctl-lib?

In your edit [1], you added vzctl-lib to yum command needed to install vzpkg. I think that vzpkg depends on vzctl, which in turn depends on vzctl-lib, so it should be picked up automatically. Was it the case for you that vzpkg didn't work unless being installed with explicit mention of vzctl-lib, or you just added that for some other reason? I'm going to revert your edit but really need to know why you did it.

Thank you for working with our wiki! --Kir 15:06, 5 March 2008 (EST)

Yes, you are right. The reason I added it is that on my centos 5 x86-64 machine I was not able to run vzpkg, it failed because it tried calling a script which is part of vzctl-lib. As you say there should be a dependency in place. My experience is that it is missing. Therefore I recommend to add vzctl-lib to the yum-command. It will not cause any problems if the dependency is in place, right? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Perchrh (talk • contribs) 13:55, 6 March 2008.

I have checked that vzpkg requires vzctl, and vzctl requires vzctl-lib. So this dependency should be picked up automatically by yum. In case it's not working that way we should file a bug for yum. Could you please re-check the issue? --Kir 05:06, 6 March 2008 (EST)

Alright,

[root@osl2r134 ~]# rpm -q --whatrequires vzctl-lib

vzctl-3.0.22-1

The dependency is in place, so I would call it a bug in yum. I'll see if I have time (work is crazy) to reproduce the problem later.
