The problem seems to be with having two different packages with the same NEVRA in two repositories. In this case it is mpich-0:3.2.1-12.fc31.x86_64 in rawhide and group_python-python3.8 repositories: # dnf repoquery mpich-0:3.2.1-12.fc31.x86_64 --requires --repoid=rawhide Last metadata expiration check: 0:54:17 ago on Út 16. července 2019, 13:28:00 CEST. (python(abi) = 3.7 if python3) /usr/bin/perl ..... # dnf repoquery mpich-0:3.2.1-12.fc31.x86_64 --requires --repoid=group_python-python3.8 Last metadata expiration check: 0:54:21 ago on Út 16. července 2019, 13:27:58 CEST. (python(abi) = 3.8 if python3) /usr/bin/perl ..... # dnf repoquery mpich-0:3.2.1-12.fc31.x86_64 --requires Last metadata expiration check: 0:54:10 ago on Út 16. července 2019, 13:28:00 CEST. (python(abi) = 3.7 if python3) (python(abi) = 3.8 if python3) /usr/bin/perl ..... When you do not specify the repo to work with, the requirements from both mpich packages are merged resulting in this contradictory requirements. Anyway, the DNF error messages really are misleading. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to '31'. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to 31. I think the issue is in libsolv. I've filed an issue for this: https://github.com/openSUSE/libsolv/issues/367 This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle. Changing version to 32. The libsolv issue has been resolved in upstream. You can test the latest libsolv from our nightly repo (dnf copr enable rpmsoftwaremanagement/dnf-nightly). With this libsolv installed, I'm no longer able to reproduce the bug. |
Description of problem: This is really confusing, I'm not sure what exactly is going on here. But the problem report seems to misattribute requirements: # dnf upgrade --allowerasing --best Last metadata expiration check: 3:09:50 ago on Fri Jul 12 09:47:19 2019. Error: Problem 1: problem with installed package mpich-3.2.1-12.fc31.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package mpich-3.2.1-12.fc31.x86_64 - python3-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.i686 has inferior architecture - package python3-3.8.0~b2-1.fc31.x86_64 requires (python(abi) = 3.7 if python3), but none of the providers can be installed ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - cannot install both python3-3.8.0~b2-1.fc31.x86_64 and python3-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 - cannot install both python3-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 and python3-3.8.0~b2-1.fc31.x86_64 - problem with installed package python3-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package python3-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 Problem 2: problem with installed package python3-libs-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package python3-libs-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package python3-rpm-4.15.0-0.beta.1.fc31.x86_64 - problem with installed package python3-rpm-4.15.0-0.beta.1.fc31.x86_64 - package python3-rpm-4.15.0-0.beta.1.fc31.x86_64 requires libpython3.7m.so.1.0()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - cannot install both python3-libs-3.8.0~b2-1.fc31.x86_64 and python3-libs-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 - cannot install both python3-libs-3.7.4~rc2-1.fc31.x86_64 and python3-libs-3.8.0~b2-1.fc31.x86_64 (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) But in fact the python3 package has no such requirements. # rpm -qpR python3-3.8.0~b2-1.fc31.x86_64.rpm libc.so.6()(64bit) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit) libpython3.8.so.1.0()(64bit) python3-libs(x86-64) = 3.8.0~b2-1.fc31 rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 rpmlib(PayloadIsZstd) <= 5.4.18-1 rpmlib(TildeInVersions) <= 4.10.0-1 rtld(GNU_HASH) It's the mpich package which does (and only it): # rpm -qR mpich|grep python (python(abi) = 3.7 if python3) It looks like dnf is mixing the package which has the provides with the package which has the requires. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm-4.15.0-0.beta.1.fc31.x86_64 dnf-4.2.7-1.fc31.noarch How reproducible: deterministic Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install mpich 2. Enable python3.8 copr: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.8/ 3. Try to upgrade to latest versions of packages What's even more confusing, the problem is not with mpich (because the Requires is conditional), and not with python3 (as said above), but with meson, which comes from a module and wasn't rebuilt properly. And a slightly different dnf command let's things upgrade properly: # dnf upgrade python3 --best --allowerasing Last metadata expiration check: 3:17:02 ago on Fri Jul 12 09:47:19 2019.
