#4278 Need grub2-xcat rpms for SL Linux
grub2-xcat rpm missing for Scientific LInux, this posted from the mailing list
I am using the internet repo to update xcat and I have found the error.
Under the rh* directories in the xcat-deps bz2 that was referenced, grub2-xcat exists. However, it is NOT present under the SL5/6 directories.
To workaround this issue at the moment, I have SCPed the file to the server and ran a yum localinstall against it to satisfy the broken dependency.
Discussion
Yang Song, Please take care the package link in dependency tar ball for SL. It should be the one linked from RH.

After we get this fixed, we need to build a new xcat-deps.
I believe you did this could you put to pending. We do need the rebuilt deps package for me to verify.
I am wondering if we really want to maintain the CentOS, SL sub directories in xcat-dep, I think we could document to indicate that for CentOS and SL, just point to the RHEL sub directory as the xcat-dep repo...
I updated the doc https://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/wiki/Install_xCAT_on_the_Management_Node/ to indicate that CentOS and SL could use the RHEL xcat-dep. Closing this bug.
