3.21.2. Unresolved Dependencies

Many software packages, in order to work correctly, depend on other software packages that must
be installed on your system. For example, many of the graphical Red Hat system administration tools
require the and packages. To make sure your system has all the packages it needs
python pythonlib
in order to be fully functional, Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS checks these package dependencies each
time you install or remove software packages.
If any package requires another package which you have not selected to install, the program presents a
list of these unresolved dependencies and gives you the opportunity to resolve them (see Figure 3-19).
The Unresolved Dependencies screen appears only if you are missing packages that are needed by
the packages you have selected. At the bottom of the screen, under the list of missing packages, an
Install packages to satisfy dependencies checkbox is selected by default. If you leave this checked,
the installation program will resolve dependencies automatically by adding all required packages to
the list of selected packages.
