Actual Results:
Running transaction
Transaction failed: Rpm transaction failed.
  - file /usr/sbin/rdistd conflicts between attempted installs of rdist-1:6.1.5-85.fc41.x86_64 and rdist-1:6.1.5-85.fc41.x86_64


Expected Results:

Additional Information:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2381598 says:
The cause is a [...] package being incompatible with a merge of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin in Fedora 42 <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Unify_bin_and_sbin>

Hi Jan,

there was a FTBFS on rdist in January because of the new GCC IIRC - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2341267. I was going to retire the package anyway so I did not fix that and retired the package a month later - https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rdist/blob/rawhide/f/dead.package. Unless you'd like to create a PR for the previous FTBFS and then for this one, I won't fix this, sorry.

Regards,
Michal Ruprich

OK, I will try to fix f42 after https://src.fedoraproject.org is no longer 500.

Thanks for the PR, the build is now in Bodhi - https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-14d3a230e3
