To users of the LiveCD and LiveDVD creation utility: Kadischi There is now a subpackage for kadischi called kadischi-tools.
This subpackage contains find-live-cd, eject-live-cd and scanswap. Until Kadishci and Kadischi-tools makes it into the main Fedora repositories it will be required to include package zlib into your repository transaction if using a local disk or networked repository source with Kadischi whether you are using the CVS compiled and installed method or RPM methods.
To do this, simply modify your comps.xml file and add zlib as a mandatory package. For RPM users, simply add kadischi-tools as a mandatory package, it already requires zlib.
If you do not include zlib as a package in the transaction set, booting the LiveCD or LiveDVD will likely fail due to it's requirements on libz.so.1 from zlib package.
If you are using a stock Fedora repository, those users will simply need to wait until kadischi and kadischi-tools is added to the main repository.
Alternatively, you can set up a local repository for inclusion into Anaconda, and still use a stock Fedora repository along with a localized disk repository with kadischi-tools in it and listed.
The purpose of creating the subpackage was to alleviate the current binaries being compiled against zlib, which pciutils requires and pciutils-devel is used to compile Kadischi binaries. This was a better approach than statically compiling the binaries.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. This is a simple notice for Kadischi utility users.
