This problem occurred while attempting to install MATE as a second desktop on an already installed F37 system. My workaround was to first remove systemd-oomd-defaults and then install MATE. $ fgrep -A6 '2022-11-17T10:34:04-0800 CRITICAL Error:' dnf.log.1 2022-11-17T10:34:04-0800 CRITICAL Error: Problem: problem with installed package systemd-oomd-defaults-251.8-586.fc37.noarch - package mate-desktop-configs-1.26.0-6.fc37.noarch conflicts with systemd-oomd-defaults provided by systemd-oomd-defaults-251.8-586.fc37.noarch - package mate-desktop-configs-1.26.0-6.fc37.noarch conflicts with systemd-oomd-defaults provided by systemd-oomd-defaults-251.7-611.fc37.noarch - package mate-desktop-1.26.0-6.fc37.x86_64 requires mate-desktop-configs = 1.26.0-6.fc37, but none of the providers can be installed - conflicting requests 2022-11-17T10:34:04-0800 INFO (try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) Systemd-oomd can kill the whole mate-session , see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2068699 for more infos. For this reason systemd-oomd-defaults needs to be removed, and earlyoom will be installed as replacement. Simply folow update instruction and use dnf update --allowerasing --skip-broken. That's it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2068699 *** |
Description of problem: Upgraded yesterday to Fedora 37. Had to explicitly tell dnf to exclude systemd-oomd-defaults, with: # dnf system-upgrade --release 37 download --skip-broken --best --exclude systemd-oomd-defaults --allowerasing as otherwise it would remove those packages: - mate-desktop - mate-desktop-configs - mate-system-monitor After upgraded to Fedora 37, it is still not possible to install systemd-oomd-defaults: $ sudo dnf install systemd-oomd-defaults Last metadata expiration check: 0:14:13 ago on Wed Nov 16 07:48:43 2022.
