Description Menanteau Guy 2016-09-06 15:51:52 UTC
I set a VM machine with Fedora-Server-dvd-ppc64le-25-Alpha-1.2.iso
I did an update and then try to install qemu.

It fails with:
dnf install qemu
Last metadata expiration check: 2:02:14 ago on Tue Sep  6 09:39:27 2016.
Error: nothing provides edk2-ovmf needed by qemu-system-x86-2:2.7.0-0.2.rc3.fc25.ppc64le

Note that this problem is also present on ppc64 (big endian)

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2016-09-08 19:57:49 UTC
edk2 package has ExclusiveArch which excludes ppc. Parts of the edk2 build system choke on it, largely because edk2 has no ppc support so it doesn't make a lot of sense for the build system to support it. Anyways, we can work around it in the qemu spec I think

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2016-10-03 15:32:00 UTC
This is fixed now in 2.7.0-1, but it seems like there's related issues in bug 1375942

Comment 4 Cole Robinson 2016-10-14 16:07:16 UTC
Reopened because we need the same fix for f23 and f24
