Description of problem: When upgrading python-qt5, I get a file conflict error from dnf. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): python-qt5-5.5.1-13.fc25.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have python3-qt5 installed. 2. Try to upgrade python-qt5 3. Actual results: file /usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.pyqt5 from install of python-qt5-5.5.1-13.fc25.x86_64 conflicts with file from package python3-qt5-5.5.1-11.fc25.x86_64 Expected results: Successful upgrade Additional info: ---> Package python-qt5.x86_64 5.5.1-11.fc25 will be upgraded ---> Package python-qt5.x86_64 5.5.1-13.fc25 will be an upgrade
you have to upgrade both python-qt5 and python3-qt5 at the same time.
Yeah, I was going to post information about that this morning after I noticed that the python3 packages aren't updating because of dependency errors. Not sure what those errors are, though. Here is the output from dnf. Upgrading: python-qt5 x86_64 5.5.1-14.fc25 rawhide 3.9 M Skipping packages with broken dependencies: python3-qt5 x86_64 5.5.1-14.fc25 rawhide 3.9 M python3-qt5-devel x86_64 5.5.1-14.fc25 rawhide 502 k And if I accept this, then it gives me the error I reported.
What does this say: dnf update --best ??
and, if you happen to have an oddly named python3-webkit pkg installed, try removing it.
Thanks for that command. That's really useful. Here are the relevant entries from the output: package python3-webengine-5.5.1-11.fc25.x86_64 requires python3-qt5(x86-64) = 5.5.1-11.fc25, but none of the providers can be installed. package python3-webkit-5.5.1-11.fc25.x86_64 requires python3-qt5(x86-64) = 5.5.1-11.fc25, but none of the providers can be installed. So, you're saying I should remove these? They're obsolete? Or do they just need their dependencies updated to the latest python3-qt5 version?
Yes, remove those

That did the trick! Thanks for your help.
