Description Jan Kratochvil 2020-08-05 21:11:32 UTC

Description of problem:
Unable to install cmake3 on CentOS-8.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
N/A

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
dnf/yum install cmake3

Actual results:
Package cmake-3.11.4-7.el8.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

Expected results:
cmake3-3.17.3-3.el8.x86_64

Additional info:
$ rpm -q --provides cmake
...
cmake = 3.11.4-7.el8
cmake3 = 3.11.4-7.el8

Is this OK? 3.11 is not new enough for LLVM.

I cannot find cmake3.el8 anywhere despite it is built in Koji:
  cmake3-3.17.2-1.el8

Comment 1 Antonio T. sagitter 2020-08-06 10:08:29 UTC

Hi Jan.

Unfortunately, `cmake3-3.17.2-1.el8` from EPEL (https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1500080) cannot be pushed into the repositories because it conflicts with CMake(3) from CentOS.

Comment 2 Jan Kratochvil 2020-08-06 12:31:31 UTC

Maybe to call it cmake3-latest in .el8 EPEL? It can be always adjusted later, it is just EPEL.
But I see it is not obvious how to go forward.

Comment 3 Carl George 🤠 2020-08-07 14:13:58 UTC

cmake3 (or cmake3-latest) would not be allowed by EPEL policy, because as Antonio mentioned it would have conflicts with cmake from RHEL.

Red Hat is investigating updating their cmake package, see bug 1845910.
