Description Bruno Wolff III 2015-06-07 20:21:22 UTC
Description of problem:
While doing some group installs I hit some file conflicts. Even though know packages were installed in either case, dnf treated both groups as fully installed and I needed to use group mark remove in order to try installing them again.

Comment 1 Honza Silhan 2015-07-24 12:01:43 UTC
Michal, isn't it fixed in the upstream? The problem is that the group is marked as installed before the transaction successfully finishes.

Hi Bruno,

could you please describe your problem in more detail or confirm that this is really a duplicate of #1244179?

Comment 4 Morris Jones 2015-08-06 18:52:08 UTC
The bug may be more than just out of space as in #1244179. It occurs when there is a packaging error in a group.

The bug appears attempting to group install 'Electronic Lab'. The group has conflicting packages, (most likely a qucs packaging error) and fails to install. with the following message:

Error: Transaction check error:
  file /usr/bin/admsXml conflicts between attempted installs of mot-adms-2.3.2-3.fc22.x86_64 and qucs-0.0.18-2.fc22.x86_64

After that, the system thinks the group is installed: 

sudo dnf group install 'Electronic Lab'
Last metadata expiration check performed 0:01:16 ago on Thu Aug  6 11:26:48 2015.
Group 'Electronic Lab' is already installed, skipping.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

No packages were installed:

sudo dnf remove mot-adms
No match for argument: mot-adms
Error: No packages marked for removal.

It can be cleared with:

sudo dnf group mark remove 'Electronic Lab'
Last metadata expiration check performed 0:10:48 ago on Thu Aug  6 11:26:48 2015.
Groups marked removed: Electronic Lab

Comment 6 Samuel Sieb 2015-09-25 20:42:06 UTC
Is there a dnf equivalent to "yum shell" or some other way to install a group without a particular package?

Comment 7 Michal Luscon 2015-11-23 15:40:21 UTC
Yes, you can exclude packages by -x option.
