Description Frantisek Hanzlik 2018-10-27 08:52:53 UTC
Description of problem:
It seems as Versionlock DNF plugin not accept package-spec values listed in its /etc/dnf/plugins/versionlock.list file. Certain DNF operations (e.g. install) produce error message:

# dnf install community-mysql-devel
Versionlock plugin: could not parse pattern: ragel-6.10-*

# dnf install community-mysql-devel
Versionlock plugin: could not parse pattern: ragel-6.10*

# dnf install community-mysql-devel
Versionlock plugin: could not parse pattern: ragel-6.10

when /etc/dnf/plugins/versionlock.list contain corresponding strings 'ragel-6.10-*', 'ragel-6.10*' or 'ragel-6.10' (without single quotes).

Although according to plugin and DNF man page this should be valid package-spec patterns. Also these patterns were OK in previous Fedora distros.

Comment 1 Marek Blaha 2018-10-31 08:31:34 UTC
Hi, as a temporary workaround, you can use form

ragel-0:6.10-*.*

Later today I'll post a patch fixing this issue.
