Description of problem: $ sudo dnf update -y --best Last metadata expiration check: 5:32:57 ago on Fri Feb 24 10:17:54 2017 EST. Dependencies resolved. ================================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================ Skipping packages with broken dependencies (add '--best' to command line to see why package dependency cannot be satisfied): pkgconfig ppc64 1:0.29.1-2.fc26 rawhide 65 k Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Skip 1 Package Nothing to do. Complete! I've already got "--best" on the command line, and it doesn't help me. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-2.1.0-1.fc26.noarch How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install some packages which have a conflict (somehow)?
Please run it with `--debugsolver` and attach degbudata directory.
The VM is no longer doing this - I guess pkgconf/pkgconfig deps in Rawhide have been fixed. However the problem here was not that there was a temporary depsolving problem in Rawhide, but that the informational message about using "--best" is plainly wrong.
Created attachment 1258119 [details] debugdata.tar Strangely still happens on ppc64le (but not on ppc64), so here is the debugsolver output.
This seems weird: erase pkgconfig-1:0.29.1-1.fc25.ppc64le@@System pkgconf-m4-1.3.0-1.fc26.noarch@rawhide
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle. Changing version to '26'.
Please can you try "sudo dnf install pkgconfig --best" and provide an output? By that way you will see the reason why you cannot upgrade it. Thanks a lot.
I no longer have these temporary cloud guests so cannot test anything else. The problem is the message says "add '--best' to command line to see why package dependency cannot be satisfied", but --best is already present on the command line and no such information is shown.

I think I was able to reproduce it with rawhide dockr containerwith just doing dnf-update.
The recommendations and problems reports were refactored in https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/782. Hope that it helps.
