We consider broken deps within the set of packages included in the
released images to block the release, but there are none of those in
Beta. Broken deps outside the package set that gets on images aren't
really as important.
Longer version of what has happened:
I had a more or less functional f15-Alpha test installation and ran "yum
update". After rebooting, any attempt to log in through the GUI ended
with a "Oh no!..." - ... should not have happened, but it's a test
release, ... so not much reason to complain.
I decided to reinstall using netinstall.iso.
Initially (1st try), I tried a "customized package set". I was warned
about a long series of missing deps. The install however proceeded and
ended with anaconda raising before-mentioned error.
Then, (2nd try) I tried a "default package set" w/ *testing deactivate.
I was warned about gnome-session missing dependency and ended up with
"Oh no!
Then (3rd try) I tried a "default package set" w/ *testing activated.
I was warned about gnome-session missing dependencies. This time, I was
able to login.
