These are the dependencies of libgfortran that are holding up the install of gcc8
Hi Stan,

Exactly right. But I do not know how to encode this requirement in a
spec file. The annobin package can be built with any (recent) version
of gcc, but it must be installed alongside whichever version was used
to build it. What I assume is needed is something like this in the
annobin.spec file:
InstallRequires: BuildGCC
But I am not sufficiently proficient with spec file syntax to know how
to write this properly. :-( I will try asking around and see if I can
find someone who knows how to do this.
Cheers
Nick
Thanks. I'm not proficient in spec-ese, though what you are saying sounds right. I downloaded the version of annobin built for gcc 7.3 (3.1.3) from koji, and downgraded using dnf -C downgrade [annobin-3.1.3 rpm] and it is now working. I'll exclude it until the dependencies holding up the install of gcc 8 are updated. Thanks to a suggestion from Florian Weimer, I have been able to update the annobin.spec file so that it now requires a specific version of gcc. This should stop the problem from happening again in the future. This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 28 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-05-28. Fedora 28 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
