Description of problem: calamares does not install, nothing provides grub2-efi-modules Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.1.6-1.fc28 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf install calamares 2. You'll fail with error message below Actual results: Error: Problem: conflicting requests - nothing provides grub2-efi-modules needed by calamares-3.1.6-1.fc28.x86_64 Expected results: calamares installs fine Additional info: Also an issue on Fedora 27 (did not check other releases)
This is fallout from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/32BitUefiSupport . There are now grub2-efi-aa64-modules, grub2-efi-ia32-modules and grub2-efi-x64-modules noarch packages instead of a grub2-efi-modules arch-specific package, so that you can install 32-bit UEFI with an x86_64 distro or the other way round.
The grub2 package provides backwards compatibility Provides for grub2-efi (though they are ambiguous, both grub2-efi-x64 and grub2-efi-ia32 provide it), but not for grub2-efi-modules. I fixed the Calamares packaging to use the real package names. (I decided to use Requires for the x64 version and Recommends for the ia32 version, so that 32-bit UEFI is supported by default, but not required. The Calamares code already supports installing 32-bit UEFI on a 64-bit distro.)
Thanks for fixing that fast!
Well, it was just a trivial packaging change: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/calamares/c/8b374c4032683255d3f3f3f000fd10f55edf6aea?branch=master
