Description Jerry James 2020-06-15 22:52:26 UTC

Description of problem:
Both python3-pytest and python3-pytest4 Provide python3dist(pytest).  This means that packages that BuildRequires: python3dist(pytest) might get either.  This is popping up in package reviews, where the existence of that BR prompts a complaint that a dependency on a deprecated package has been detected.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python3-pytest4-4.6.11-1.fc33

How reproducible:
N/A

Steps to Reproduce:

Yes, this is a feature. Koji/mock/dnf will pick the higher possible version.

This has been workarounded on FedoraReview side (with issue open for a more proper fix) for 2 weeks. I suggest you use the FedoraReview version from git for now or ask for a release.

Does that work for you, can I close this as NOTABUG?
