Description Richard W.M. Jones 2016-03-21 11:46:35 UTC 
Description of problem:

Check out ceph.spec from dist-git
(http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/ceph.git/)
and try to install the build dependencies:

# dnf builddep ~/d/fedora/ceph/master/ceph.spec --enablerepo=rawhide --best --allowerasing
[...]
Error: package selinux-policy-devel-3.13.1-179.fc25.noarch requires selinux-policy = 3.13.1-179.fc25, but none of the providers can be installed

Note that these packages are already installed:

$ rpm -q selinux-policy-devel selinux-policy selinux-policy-targeted
selinux-policy-devel-3.13.1-179.fc25.noarch
selinux-policy-3.13.1-179.fc25.noarch
selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-179.fc25.noarch

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

rpm-4.13.0-0.rc1.27.fc25.x86_64
dnf-1.1.7-2.fc25.noarch

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. (As described above)

Additional info:

It looks as if the problem comes from this part of ceph.spec:

%package devel
Summary: SELinux policy devel
Group: System Environment/Base
Requires(pre): selinux-policy = %{version}-%{release}

Perhaps dnf previously ignored `Requires(pre)'?

Wrong file.  The above comes from selinux-policy.spec.

However ceph.spec contains:

%package selinux                                                                
Summary:        SELinux support for Ceph MON, OSD and MDS                       
Group:          System Environment/Base                                         
Requires:       %{name}                                                         
Requires:       policycoreutils, libselinux-utils                               
Requires(post): selinux-policy-base >= %{_selinux_policy_version}, policycoreutils, gawk
Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2016-07-08 09:24:30 UTC 
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Comment 3 Jan Kurik 2016-07-26 05:00:53 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle.
Changing version to '25'.
Comment 4 Jaroslav Mracek 2017-05-12 17:59:45 UTC 
Please can you confirm that the issue is valid for dnf-2.4.1-1 and dnf-plugins-core-2.0.0-1 that are part of rawhide or Fedora 26, or can be downloaded from our testing repository (dnf copr enable rpmsoftwaremanagement/dnf-nightly). Thanks a lot for your cooperation.
Comment 5 Richard W.M. Jones 2017-05-15 13:42:46 UTC 
No, it seems to be fixed in dnf 2.1.0.
