I am not able to reproduce it on a fresh f33 VM with vim-default-editor-8.2.2811-1.fc33.noarch installed: # yum install vim-default-editor # exec bash -l # echo $EDITOR /usr/bin/vim # dnf upgrade --refresh # dnf install 'dnf-command(system-upgrade)' # dnf system-upgrade download --releasever 34 # dnf system-upgrade reboot [...] # hostnamectl Static hostname: ci-vm-10-0-137-55.hosted.upshift.rdu2.redhat.com Icon name: computer-vm Chassis: vm Machine ID: a5f18bd752c24d1d848e03a937c9bdf4 Boot ID: 1aadfbc75f674224ad7d089746de59d8 Virtualization: kvm Operating System: Fedora 34 (Thirty Four) CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:fedoraproject:fedora:34 Kernel: Linux 5.11.17-300.fc34.x86_64 Architecture: x86-64 Hardware Vendor: Red Hat Hardware Model: OpenStack Compute # echo $EDITOR /usr/bin/vim Do we have any self-contained reproducer for this? That's a difficult one because my Fedora has a bumpy history: it started as a KDE spin, was migrated to Cinnamon, and well... I'll see what I can do. It was probably easier than I thought, trying to see which packages I exactly have, I called the following: ``` $ sudo dnf group install cinnamon-desktop-environment Last metadata expiration check: 0:42:36 ago on Mon 24 May 2021 06:16:15 CEST.

Error: Problem: problem with installed package vim-default-editor-2:8.2.2875-1.fc34.noarch - package vim-default-editor-2:8.2.2875-1.fc34.noarch conflicts with system-default-editor provided by nano-default-editor-5.6.1-1.fc34.noarch - package nano-default-editor-5.6.1-1.fc34.noarch conflicts with system-default-editor provided by vim-default-editor-2:8.2.2875-1.fc34.noarch - package nano-default-editor-5.6.1-1.fc34.noarch conflicts with system-default-editor provided by vim-default-editor-2:8.2.2637-1.fc34.noarch - package vim-default-editor-2:8.2.2637-1.fc34.noarch conflicts with system-default-editor provided by nano-default-editor-5.6.1-1.fc34.noarch - conflicting requests (try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) ``` And `sudo dnf group upgrade Standard` gives me the same error, so it seems to me that the actual issue is that the "Standard" group should depend on `system-default-editor` as alternative to `nano-default-editor` (I don't know if it's possible for groups, I know this from Debian where your package depends on "virtual-package | actual-package" to handle alternatives) Anyway, for my part, I'm removing the "Standard" package. Thanks! `dnf group install Standard` indeed triggers the conflict above when vim-default-editor is installed. Chris Murphy and Neal Gompa, could you please clarify how this was supposed to work? This is working as expected, since "nano-default-editor" is requested in the comps groups explicitly. This is how system upgrades works, since it "upgrades" comps groups and resolves them to satisfy the transaction. If you want to opt out of that, then you can "remove" the "Standard" group, or set an exclusion for "nano-default-editor". It definitely does not work as I expected. If someone manually installed vim-default-editor, they want to use vim as the default editor, independently of the distribution default. If it prevents the system from being updated, the solution is just broken. (In reply to Kamil Dudka from comment #7) > It definitely does not work as I expected.

Was it already wrong when https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/UseNanoByDefault was discussed? A quick (but incomplete) fix to this breakage would be to revert the following patch: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nano/c/df5530fd As far as I can see, it has never been approved or documented anywhere. Any better idea? Asking Fedora users to remove the the "Standard" group in case they are not able to upgrade their system, is not going to work. Small update, also the group workstation-product-environment brings the issue, without involvement of the Standard group, and I can't decently remove _this_ group... Without enough knowledge to feel really sure, my impression is that the issue can't be properly solved as long as groups don't support alternative dependencies. Being able to state that a group depends either on the virtual package system-default-editor _or_ on the package nano-default-editor would solve the issue, because dnf would find out that the virtual package is already provided by vim-default-editor, so that nano-default-editor doesn't need to be installed.

Having more than one installed at the same time will lead to unexpected/broken behavior, so that prevents it from happening.

Yes, though it *might* be technically possible to use a rich dep stanza in the group now and DNF *might* do the right thing. That is, instead of "nano-default-editor", use "(nano-default-editor or system-default-editor)". Making such an enhancement would be the responsibility of the DNF team, so sending it there... It looks to me that the current solution based on system-default-editor is already heavily over-engineered yet it does not serve its original purpose. Instead of waiting for dnf team to solve this mess by adding additional complexity, we might want to rather simplify things. Here is my proposal: 1. Rename the nano-default-editor subpackage to just default-editor. 2. Drop the vim-default-editor subpackage. 3. Users that want to use a different editor by default will just edit a single file in /etc which will be guarded by %config(noreplace). User's preferences will be preserved across updates without any conflicts at RPM level.

It was not over-engineered. It was added specifically because people wanted a way to block the nano-default-editor with their own one. It does not really matter why it was added. The current situation is that the "solution" is already too complicated yet it does not solve the problem it was intended to solve. Does anybody have any technical concerns regarding my proposal?

Yes. You also don't actually need to change anything as it is now if you want to override the setting in /etc or in $HOME already.

Otherwise it wouldn't have been done in the first place. And there is an underlying problem here, DNF should not be blocking upgrades on packages that are not mandatory-to-install in comps. I just checked, and we don't have "nano-default-editor" tagged as a mandatory package, and it should be considered equivalent to Recommends and not failing this. Neal, could you review if I understand the expected behavior correctly? * If a package (regardless if it's mandatory, default, or optional) in a group is not available, it's skipped * If a package has an unresolvable dependency (incl. a conflict), dnf errors out My understanding is that you want us to error out only on packages that are "mandatory" and apply --skip-broken behavior on "default" and "optional". If that's the case, I don't think it's a good idea. The package type "mandatory", "default" and "optional" historically refers to Anaconda UI: * mandatory: always installed as part of the group (if present) * default: installed as part of the group, but the user can de-select it * optional: available, user can select it I don't think we should be adding these values any other meaning.

The problem is that people are already generally using it this way. Personally, I'd rather comps groups turn into metapackages as people expect, but we are where we are... Having --skip-broken behavior for default/optional means that overrides actually work as intended. I as Vim maintainer talked about the issue with Kamil, Nano maintainer, and came up with the following idea: - vim-default-editor and nano-default-editor will stay as they are - a new nano subpackage - default-editor - will be introduced, will replace nano-default-editor in dnf group Standard and comps and will have a weak dependency on nano-default-editor This way the fresh installation will get nano-default-editor by default, and users who have vim-default-editor should not be stopped during upgrade. Dan, is there a way how we can test the proposed idea with DNF? Unfortunately I don't know how to change groups in DNF :( . (In reply to Zdenek Dohnal from comment #21) > and came up with the following idea: > s/and came up/and we came up Pull request filed https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nano/pull-request/7 *** Bug 1971333 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I'm sorry, I should set needinfo to a person assigned to the ticket :) . Pavli, you couldn't give us an advice how to test the fix with DNF, could you? Thank you in advance! Hi Zdenek and Kamil, I discussed this with Dan and while your solution works, a cleaner solution would be to have the default-editor package as a separate package (instead of as a nano subpackage) that requires a virtual provide (provided by both vim-default-editor and nano-default-editor) and recommends nano-default-editor. We'd have to come up with a good name for the provide, because it obviously cannot be named the same as the default-editor package. Let me know what do you think about this proposal. As to how to change comps in Fedora, it's done in fedora-comps repo according to this documentation: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_and_edit_comps.xml_for_package_groups#How_to_submit_changes_to_comps To test it, probably easiest would be to create a simple repository with just the changed comps and the packages that need to change, and add "enablegroups=0" config option for Fedora repos. That way, the comps from the simple repo will be used, but all Fedora packages will be available and you can test installing the Standard group. It's a bit of work, but I don't know of any better way. I can try it out. I can also create a test in dnf test suite, but it won't be with real data. Hi Pavla, thank you for the answer! (In reply to Pavla Kratochvilova from comment #26) > I discussed this with Dan and while your solution works, a cleaner solution > would be to have the default-editor package as a separate package (instead > of as a nano subpackage) We've considered this as an option, but dismissed it because it looked like an overhead to ship it as a separate component (it would have had to go through fedora review, etc.) instead of being a subpackage of nano (nano was chosen as a default editor, IMO it makes sense to ship 'default-editor' in it if we don't create a separate component). Is there a downside of the subpackage approach? Only thing I can think of is that 'default-editor' will inherit nano's 'VR', but I don't know of situation in which it makes problems. > that requires a virtual provide (provided by both > vim-default-editor and nano-default-editor) and recommends > nano-default-editor. We'd have to come up with a good name for the provide, > because it obviously cannot be named the same as the default-editor package. vim-default-editor and nano-default-editor provides 'system-default-editor' virtual provide, the package would be 'default-editor'. So we're okay, aren't we? Ad requiring virtual provide 'system-default-editor' in 'default-editor' - I don't know dnf/rpm internal resolution that much - so I have two questions about that: 1) What would happen if vim-default-editor is installed and some third package provides 'system-default-editor' too, will dnf keep out the third package from the upgrade transaction? 2) what are the pros for its requirement? vim-default-editor will be upgraded anyway and nano-default-editor will be brought in if nothing installed conflicts with it. Maybe for automatic removal of vim-default-editor/nano-default-editor if user removes 'default-editor'? > > Let me know what do you think about this proposal. > > As to how to change comps in Fedora, it's done in fedora-comps repo > according to this documentation: > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_and_edit_comps. > xml_for_package_groups#How_to_submit_changes_to_comps Thanks for the link! > > To test it, probably easiest would be to create a simple repository with > just the changed comps and the packages that need to change, and add > "enablegroups=0" config option for Fedora repos. Ok, I hope a repo created by createrepo_c will help there.

It's actually just the opposite - default-editor gets removed if nano-default-editor is removed. (The other way is true in both cases.) It would also mean, that if you excluded nano-default-editor, dnf would try to satisfy the dependency with another system-default-editor and you would never end up with default-editor installed, without actually having any default editor package installed. > > Let me know what do you think about this proposal. > > > > As to how to change comps in Fedora, it's done in fedora-comps repo > > according to this documentation: > > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_and_edit_comps. > > xml_for_package_groups#How_to_submit_changes_to_comps > > Thanks for the link! > > > > > To test it, probably easiest would be to create a simple repository with > > just the changed comps and the packages that need to change, and add > > "enablegroups=0" config option for Fedora repos. > > Ok, I hope a repo created by createrepo_c will help there.

(In reply to Pavla Kratochvilova from comment #28) > I don't know of any downside, it just seems kind of weird if it's a nano subpackage, but I get it. This kind of weirdness is acceptable for me. Someone might find it weird to use nano as the default editor on a Linux system but that is another story :-) If we have a volunteer to drive the Fedora new package process and to become the maintainer of such a new package, I will definitely support the effort. If not, I would prefer to move forward the pull request mentioned in comment #23. I managed to verify the current PR for nano works during installing 'Standard' group from created repository. Without fixed comps and default-editor package I get: $ dnf group install Standard Last metadata expiration check: 2:07:55 ago on Tue 22 Jun 2021 11:43:34 PM EDT.

After the fix gets into stable F33 and F34, we can create a PR for fedora-comps.

Nice. Thank you for taking care of it, Zdenek! Looks like this commit https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/c/3496ed634cf452da38cc2796c6710e1de6cbc23a?branch=main Broke nano by default on Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-35-1.2.iso which is made in pungi https://pagure.io/pungi-fedora/blob/main/f/variants-fedora.xml#_37-66 We should probably discuss in this Server edition thread how to fix it, or maybe it needs to be escalated to FESCo to figure out what to do now - even though it's too late for Fedora 35 since it's out the door now. :\ https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/server@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/ZI56UQQGRIKJ6ZMCGM2ULMSNLQMM4F5P/ This could be a problem in pungi that it does not handle weak dependencies properly. But users can still install nano-default-editor after the installation and it works just fine, doesn't it? Users can 'dnf install nano-default-editor --allow-erasing' Let's keep this bug closed then, and Server WG and Releng can work out if a bug needs to be opened against pungi. |
