Comment 1 Przemek Klosowski 2017-08-02 18:46:55 UTC
A simple workaround is to 'dnf erase Macaulay2'

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2017-08-02 20:58:46 UTC
looks like the symlinks used in previous builds were replaced by real directories.  

Need to include some scriptlets to support the upgrade path, see also:
