Description Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2017-02-10 11:07:07 UTC

Description of problem:
When installing the dkms package, there is a kernel-devel dependency.
But since any kernel-devel varriant (PAE/lpae/etc) has the kernel-devel virtual provide, it's not possible to prefer kernel-devel over kernel-debug-devel.

I sugguest to drop the kernel-devel virtual provide in the kernel package and to use the right virtual as kernel-devel-uname-r

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
current dkms version in devel

How reproducible:
dnf install dkms


Actual results:
kernel-devel-debug is installed

Expected results:
It should install the kernel-devel matching the kernel (or at least the statistically best candidate).

Additional info:
see also rhbz#1420754

Comment 1 Simone Caronni 2017-02-11 10:50:14 UTC

I've added kernel-devel-uname-r instead of kernel-devel and the weak dependency as you suggested at:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1420754#c0
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1421105#c2

But it still pulls in kernel-debug-devel by default, as you said. Will release it with the next snapshot drop, is that ok?

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2017-02-28 11:14:41 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle.
Changing version to '26'.

Comment 3 Simone Caronni 2017-04-06 08:14:32 UTC

So the weak dependency is not working. On an i386 system with kernel-PAE-devel the weak dependency pulls in also the the "base" kernel-devel:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1436840

I've left the kernel-uname-devel-r requirement and removed the weak dependency.
