Description elinde 2026-03-12 23:01:17 UTC
Description of problem:

gdal3.4-devel (from epel9) fails to install when gdal (from appstream) is already installed. 


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

gdal3.4-devel 3.4.3-5
gdal 3.10.3-3


How reproducible:

Consistent


Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf install epel-release
2. crb enable
3. dnf install gdal
4. dnf install gdal3.4


Actual results:

Error: Transaction test error:
  file /usr/share/man/man1/gdal-config.1.gz from install of gdal3.4-devel-3.4.3-6.el9.x86_64 conflicts with file from package gdal-3.10.3-3.el9.x86_64


Expected results:

Successful installation of both gdal and gdal3.4-devel


Additional info:

The old EPEL gdal packaged the gdal-config manpage in gdal-devel only, but RHEL gdal packages this file in *both* gdal and gdal-devel. So this might be more appropriate as a bug against RHEL gdal.
