This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 37 development cycle. Changing version to 37. Following PR was queued to fix this issue: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/1995. |
Created attachment 1867404 [details] testing repository Description of problem: According to dnf(8) should only "remove those packages in the group from the system which do not belong to another installed group and were not installed explicitly by the user." But currently dnf removes also packages that are part of another installed group. How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. create testing repo with two groups sharing packages. You can use the one from the attachment with following layout: @first-group: with packages GrpTestA, GrpTestB @second-group: with package GrpTestA 2. dnf group install first-group Installing group/module packages: GrpTestA x86_64 1.0.1-0 group-remove-test 5.9 k GrpTestB x86_64 1.0.1-0 group-remove-test 5.9 k Installing Groups: First test group 3. dnf group install second-group Installing Groups: Second test group 4. dnf group remove first-group Actual results: Package GrpTestA is removed even though it is also part of installed second-group Removing: GrpTestA x86_64 1.0.1-0 @group-remove-test 0 GrpTestB x86_64 1.0.1-0 @group-remove-test 0 Removing Groups: First test group Expected results: Package GrpTestA stays on the system: Removing: GrpTestB x86_64 1.0.1-0 @group-remove-test 0 Removing Groups: First test group Additional info: If both groups are installed in the same transaction everything works correctly: # dnf group install first-group second-group # dnf group remove first-group Removing: GrpTestB x86_64 1.0.1-0 @group-remove-test 0 Removing Groups: First test group
