SALT# cd /mnt
SALT# apkg -i hdsupp.lrp
hdsupp already installed.
SALT# fdisk -l /dev/sda
fdisk: can't load library 'libsmartcols.so.1'

If there is a library missing in apkg -i the package should IMHO _not_
be marked as installed.

Some more _fun_

SALT# apkg -u /mnt/hdsupp
Commit changes? (y/n)y
hdsupp upgraded.
Required packages that are missed:  libsmartcols
SALT# ls -l /mnt/libsmartcols.lrp
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root         53817 Dec 14 16:15
/mnt/libsmartcols.lrp

It did not even try to solve the dependencies,
Do we need a tracking tool for this kind of problems?

cheers
