Yes, it looks that way.  The problem is that this fails in a dnf transaction check.  No idea about internal details but at this stage does %pretrans have even a chance to run?

At this moment the only workaround seems to be to remove the old package before installing a new version.  This does not seem to be onerous with squid but with other packages may turn out to be quite difficult.

Yeah, there are several workarounds:

1) remove old squid and install new version

2) rm /usr/share/squid/errors/es-mx && dnf update squid

3) rpm -Uvh squid-5.0.5-3.x86-64.rpm


The problem is, that rpm during transaction test is wrongly assumes that there are conflicts between the files.

As for now I see in rawhide:

  Running scriptlet: squid-7:5.0.5-4.fc35.x86_64                            1/1 
  Preparing        :                                                        1/1 
Transaction couldn't start:
file /usr/share/squid/errors/es-mx from install of squid-7:5.0.5-4.fc35.x86_64 conflicts with file from package squid-7:5.0.5-3.fc35.x86_64
Error: Could not run transaction.

It looks like the same problem.  In squid-7:5.0.5-3.fc35.x86_64 this /usr/share/squid/errors/es-mx is a directory, so one has to try harder than in comment 3 advice.  After an update /usr/share/squid/errors/es-mx ends up as a symlink.

Hi Michal,

this issue occurs only if you try to update from 5.0.5-3 to 5.0.5-4. If you update from older squid, it should work without any issue. In case you have squid 5.0.5, please just uninstall/install it manually.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 35 development cycle.
Changing version to 35.

I'm closing this issue since updating squid to version >= 5.0.5 should work without any issue. In case you are experiencing this issue, feel free to reopen this bug.
