Description ZnqbuZ+RedHat 2023-04-27 18:59:30 UTC
When I run dnf install google-noto-sans-cjk-sc it installs google-noto-serif-cjk-vf-fonts instead. They are two different packages and provide different files. I must specify the version to make dnf install the correct package, i. e. dnf install google-noto-sans-cjk-sc-fonts-20201206-7.fc38.

I believe dnf worked well in Fedora 37.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Run dnf install google-noto-sans-cjk-sc.
Actual Results:  
Dependencies resolved.

Comment 1 Marek Blaha 2023-04-28 06:28:42 UTC
Unfortunately the behavior is from the solver point of view correct, as there are several packages providing "google-noto-sans-cjk-sc-fonts" and the solver is free to choose any of them (preferably the one with the newest version):


# dnf provides google-noto-sans-cjk-sc-fonts

Reassigning to google-noto-serif-cjk-vf-fonts component to investigate whether the provides are correct.

The google-noto-sans-cjk-sc-fonts package is replaced by google-noto-sans-cjk-vf-fonts.

In Fedora 38, dnf will install the google-noto-sans-cjk-vf-fonts package.
