Description Jan Kurik 2023-11-09 09:06:35 UTC

There are file conflicts between pcp and pcp-conf packages built for i686 vs. x86_64 architectures. Rewieving these conflicts, I would recommend to exclude i686 builds of pcp packages.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
On and x86_64 machine with installed Fedora F40:

1. yum install -y pcp.i686 pcp-conf.i686
2. yum install -y pcp.x86_64 pcp-conf.x86_64
Actual Results:  
Error: Transaction test error:
  file /etc/pcp.conf from install of pcp-conf-6.1.0-1.fc40.x86_64 conflicts with file from package pcp-conf-6.1.0-1.fc40.i686
  file /usr/include/pcp/builddefs from install of pcp-conf-6.1.0-1.fc40.x86_64 conflicts with file from package pcp-conf-6.1.0-1.fc40.i686

  file /etc/pcp/pmlogrewrite/proc_jiffies.conf from install of pcp-6.1.0-1.fc40.x86_64 conflicts with file from package pcp-6.1.0-1.fc40.i686
  file /etc/pcp/pmlogrewrite/proc_kernel_ulong.conf from install of pcp-6.1.0-1.fc40.x86_64 conflicts with file from package pcp-6.1.0-1.fc40.i686
  file /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/pcp.conf from install of pcp-6.1.0-1.fc40.x86_64 conflicts with file from package pcp-6.1.0-1.fc40.i686

Expected Results:  
The installation pass without an issue, or the i686 build is not available at all.

Here is an output of rpmdeplint:

Comment 1 Jan Kurik 2023-11-09 09:41:57 UTC

I did a check for packages dependent on i686 versions of pcp and I have not find any:

# yum repoquery --whatrequires pcp-conf.i686 --recursive
# yum repoquery --whatrequires pcp.i686 --recursive

Those two commands above show just sub-packages of pcp.srpm

Comment 2 Jan Kurik 2023-11-09 13:19:44 UTC

To be solved by https://github.com/performancecopilot/pcp/pull/1843

Comment 3 Lukáš Zaoral 2023-12-18 14:33:48 UTC

I'd like to point out that your queries were not sufficient because they did not account for all subpackages of pcp, namely the `*-devel` package.  Subsequently, you have broken the build of sysstat on i386.  If you want to stop building pcp for i386, I strongly suggest you to fix all the remaining packages (if any) that still depend on pcp before dropping support for some architecture in the future: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=110491403

I am sorry for the trouble and thanks for the remedy as discussed on a side channel.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 40 development cycle.
Changing version to 40.

Comment 6 Nathan Scott 2024-03-19 22:44:58 UTC

Jan's fix mentioned in #c2 was released in pcp-6.2.0 available on all Fedora versions now.
