Description Quentin Armitage 2019-05-10 17:17:34 UTC

Description of problem:
There does not appear to be an ipset-devel package available for installation via dnf. The keepalived package is built using ipset-devel, and it is therefore not possible to build an rpm for the keepalived package, since the BuildRequires on ipset-devel fails.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipset 6.38-3.el8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf install ipset-devel
2.
3.

Actual results:
No match for argument: libipset-devel

Expected results:
Package is installed

Additional info:
I have enabled the codeready-builder-for-rhel-8 repo, since that was necessary for the libmnl-devel and libnfnetlink-devel packages.

The ipset.spec file shows that a devel package is built.

Quentin,

Thanks for reporting this. This will be addressed in a future RHEL8 major release. Most likely, ipset-devel will be included in the codeready-builder-for-rhel-8 repository.

For the moment being, as a work-around, you can build ipset from the SRPM, that will generate an ipset-devel package, as you already observed.

If you need this to be addressed within the scope of RHEL 8.0, I would suggest that you file a customer case instead.
