Description Florian Weimer 2024-01-03 06:59:15 UTC

The old zlib package provides a zlib-static subpackage. This is missing from the zlib-ng build.

Currently, the zlib package remains tagged into the buildroot, so weird conflicts are the result:

DEBUG util.py:461:  Failed to resolve the transaction:
DEBUG util.py:461:  Problem: package zlib-static-1.2.13-5.fc40.x86_64 requires 
zlib-devel(x86-64) = 1.2.13-5.fc40, but none of the providers can be installed

DEBUG util.py:461:    - cannot install the best candidate for the job
DEBUG util.py:610:  Child return code was: 1

But the core issue is the missing zlib-static subpackage (or Provides:).

Reproducible: Always

I've created a PR (https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/zlib-ng/pull-request/7) that's adding the subpackage.

I'm not entirely sure if this is the right way to build it, so Tulio please review the PR, and if you think it's good, feel free to merge and build it.
