Description Bruno Wolff III 2015-01-09 15:14:54 UTC

Description of problem:
Transaction check error:
  file /usr/bin/gcore from install of gdb-7.8.50.20150108-1.fc22.i686 conflicts with file from package insight-7.8.50-2.20140827git.fc22.i686

Comment 1 Bruno Wolff III 2015-01-09 17:15:37 UTC

Can you comment on why you think insight is the problem here? Insight was using /usr/bin/gcore before gdb. Is insight bundling something? Do you think it will be easier for insight to change than for gdb?

> Insight was using /usr/bin/gcore before gdb.

BTW I did not know that.  But I do not find it relevant here.

/usr/bin/gcore needs GDB functionality, not the larger Insight functionality.  I rather do not see a reason why /usr/bin/gcore should be provided by Insight.

One could possibly argue about using /etc/alternatives but even in that case I do not see what Insight could provide more than GDB.  And GDB package is smaller, more often updated/bugfixed etc.

I totally agree. Since gdb provides it now, I leave it to you with pleasure :-)

This is not an alternative: just the same program. Insight users who need gcore can simply install gdb...

I'll remove gcore from the insight package ASAP. Thanks for reporting.
