Description Heinz Deinhart 2024-11-26 20:42:12 UTC
Description of problem:

I use AlmaLinux and recently upgraded from 9.4 to 9.5. The package gcc-gnat was removed while updating, since gcc was upgraded from 11.4.1 to 11.5.0 and has the following Obsoletes:

gcc-gnat < 11.5.0-2.el9.alma.1

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Alma 9.4: gcc-11.5.0-2.el9.alma.1.x86_64.rpm
Alma 9.5: gcc-11.5.0-2.el9.alma.1.x86_64
in EPEL repo: gcc-gnat-11.4.1-4.el9.x86_64.rpm

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Alma 9.4
2. Install gnat-gcc
3. Upgrade Alma 9.5
4. gnat-gcc is gone and not installable anymore

Actual results:

# rpm -q gcc
gcc-11.5.0-2.el9.alma.1.x86_64
# dnf install gcc-gnat
Last metadata expiration check: 1:17:47 ago on Tue 26 Nov 2024 08:18:36 PM CET.
Package gcc-11.5.0-2.el9.alma.1.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!
# rpm -q gcc-gnat
package gcc-gnat is not installed


Expected results:

gcc-gnat should install and be available

Additional info:

i don't know if it helps, but a company called inferitos (i don't know them) seemed to have upgraded the package themselves: https://rsync.inferitos.ru/vault/9.5-beta/Extras/sources/Packages/gcc-epel-11.5.0-3.el9.src.rpm - it seems they use it for 32bit OS. i tried to rebuild the package, but without success
