Description Christophe Fergeau 2016-10-04 15:45:15 UTC

I have pandoc installed on my f24 which installed ghc-nats as a dependency. Trying to upgrade to f25 through system-upgrade leads to
"Erreur : package ghc-nats-0.2-3.fc24.x86_64 requires libHSarray-0.5.0.0-ghc7.8.4.so()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed"

This is expected as ghc-nats has been removed from f25. However, having an Obsoletes: ghc-nats <= 0.2.3
Conflicts: ghc-nats <= 0.2.3
in ghc (or a more appropriate package) would have made upgrades smoother.

Passing --allowerasing to dnf system-upgrade also lets me move forward with the upgrade.

Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2017-04-26 07:26:23 UTC

Sorry I missed this.

The ghc-obsoletes package (from ghc-rpm-macros) now has:

Obsoletes:      ghc-nats <= 0.2, ghc-nats-devel <= 0.2

since early January.

Please reopen if problems persist.
