Hi Werner -
Hm, I guess the 7.1 RPMs must have accidentally picked up the 7.2
dependencies... :? I can look into it a bit more, but for now, I
would just ignore the dependency (--nodeps) and install it anyway.
The dependencies should be:
* fileutils
* modutils >= 2.3.11-5
* initscripts >= 3.60
* mkinitrd
