Description of problem: $ sudo dnf install ./x86_64/quantum-espresso-5.2.1-3.fc24.x86_64.rpm Last metadata expiration check performed 0:02:14 ago on Sat Dec 19 15:20:51 2015. Error: nothing provides quantum-espresso-common = 5.2.1-3.fc24 needed by quantum-espresso-5.2.1-3.fc24.x86_64 (try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages) I'm trying to install a package which is missing provides. Since the missing requirement comes from a new package, it is obvious that erasing a different package cannot help. It would be great if dnf would notice that there are no conflicting packages and not print the hint about --allowerasing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-1.1.4-2.fc23.noarch
Thanks for the report, it should be displayed only in case of conflict error.
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
I create huge refactor of problems report https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/782. Hope that it helps.
