Description David H. Gutteridge 2017-08-13 23:00:45 UTC
Description of problem:
When initiating a standard upgrade from Fedora 25 to 26, I encountered the following error:

Error: package geany-plugins-markdown-1.31-1.fc25.i686 requires geany-plugins-common = 1.31-1.fc25, but none of the providers can be installed
(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
geany-plugins-common-1.31-1.fc25

I see the same issue was previously reported in bug 1433188 and was marked as fixed, but it's certainly still an issue with 1.31. (Perhaps something got lost during the upgrade from 1.30 to 1.31.)

(As a workaround for the upgrade, I of course simply added "--allowerasing".)

I recently upgraded geany from 1.30 to 1.31 on CentOS 7 but am missing some plugins including the markdown package. Can the missing plugings be added?

Comment 2 agents 2017-08-27 22:56:20 UTC
Just discovered that the geany plugin Document seems to corrupt the geany menubar and tool icons so that they are not visible. If the program is started in non-maximized size those are missing, either maximizing the window or using the right mouse button to hover above the menubar items results in them becoming visible again.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2017-11-16 19:29:04 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2017-12-12 10:16:44 UTC
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
