Description brak 2020-05-20 17:38:59 UTC
Description of problem:

gnulib-devel cannot be installed on EL8 due to missing dependencies on texinfo and gperf


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
31.20200107git.el8

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install gnulib-devel

Actual results:
# yum install gnulib-devel
Last metadata expiration check: 0:42:34 ago on Wed 20 May 2020 04:49:10 PM UTC.
Error:
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides texinfo needed by gnulib-devel-0-31.20200107git.el8.noarch
  - nothing provides gperf needed by gnulib-devel-0-31.20200107git.el8.noarch
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Expected results:

gnulib-devel pacakge is installed

Comment 1 Robin Lee 2022-01-26 06:55:08 UTC
The two missing packages are available in the PowerTools repo in case of CentOS 8 Stream.
Just run:

yum install --enablerepo=powertools gnulib-devel
