Description Gerry Agbobada 2016-10-20 07:21:17 UTC
Description of problem:
I can't install Paraview through dnf package manager because it can't find a dependency that is already there (libjsoncpp.so)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
paraview-5.1.2-1.fc25.x86_64 (same error on i686 package)


How reproducible:
Always on my fresh install (downloaded KDE Spin Prerelease ISO yesterday, October 19th around noon)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use dnf to install paraview package
2.
3.

Actual results:
(0)$ sudo dnf install paraview.x86_64
Last metadata expiration check: 0:31:24 ago on Thu Oct 20 08:32:12 2016.
Error: nothing provides libjsoncpp.so.1()(64bit) needed by paraview-5.1.2-1.fc25.x86_64
(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages)


Expected results:
libjsoncpp is found and the installation of the package goes on


Additional info:
jsoncpp-1.7.7-1.fc25.x86_64 is installed on the machine, and rpm -ql gives :
(0)$ rpm -ql jsoncpp
/usr/lib64/libjsoncpp.so.1.7.7
/usr/lib64/libjsoncpp.so.11
