Description Daniel Berrangé 2017-08-04 17:20:18 UTC
Description of problem:
For reasons I don't understand, the latest build 2.4.0-5 added an "Epoch: 1" tag to the spec.

All the sub-packages have "Requires: wireshark = %{version}" which is now unresolvable, because 'wireshark' has an epoch.

eg

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/9731/21039731/root.log

   DEBUG util.py:439:  Error: nothing provides wireshark = 2.4.0-5.fc27 needed by wireshark-devel-1:2.4.0-5.fc27.x86_64

Since packages are forbidden to go backends in version, you can't remove this pointless epoch tag, so you'll need to change the deps to

Requires: wireshark = %{epoch}:%{version}"


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
wireshark-1:2.4.0-5

Thanks for your report. The Epoch tag was introduces because I had to go backwards in version.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle.
Changing version to '27'.

Fixed in rawhide.
