i'm following the handbook, i've just installed yaboot and when runnin
yabootconfig, i'm being told that mac-fdisk is missing. I've installed it and
it now works. Shouldn't this be a dependancy then ?

greatings.

Reproducible: Always

how about your emerge --info and cat /proc/cpuinfo

the computer has no graphical stuff yet, nor is it connected to the net. It's a
ibook g3@600MHz, currently being installed following the handbook. Which kind
of information from cpuinfo or emerge --info could be of any use for this
ticket ?

besides what kind of hw it is, I was simply fishing for your profile.  Can you
cite that here?

the profile is ppc32/2008.0. i've used the latest release candidate iso (as of
may 5th) to install it.

if !ibm, this should probably dep mac-fdisk.   /usr/sbin/yabootconfig needs
either mac-fdisk or pdisk.  Anyone in ppc32 world want to fix this and get it
added to the release snapshot?

I've added the dependency to yaboot and yaboot-static.  Brent, would it be okay
to mark yaboot-static-1.3.14 stable on ppc64?  I'd like to get rid of the old
versions.  Who should we poke to get this added to the release snapshot?

------- Comment #7 From Brent Baude 2008-05-13 13:06:50 0000 ------- 
Jose - Yes and Yes.  But you had best hurry as the snapshot may be today or
tomorrow.

------- Comment #8 From Markus Rothe 2008-05-16 10:22:32 0000 ------- 
wolf31o2: please update the snapshot to include yaboot-static-1.3.14 if it's
not too late already.

2008.0 is out, so this is finished.
