Description of problem: "dnf debuginfo-install foo-debugsource" fails if foo-debuginfo is installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-2.7.5-2.fc27.noarch How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo rpm -e libiio-debuginfo 2. sudo rpm -e libiio-debugsource 3. sudo dnf debuginfo-install libiio-debuginfo 4. sudo rpm -e libiio-debugsource 5. sudo dnf debuginfo-install libiio-debugsource Actual results: enabling updates-testing-debuginfo repository enabling updates-debuginfo repository enabling fedora-debuginfo repository enabling rpmfusion-free-updates-debuginfo repository enabling rpmfusion-free-debuginfo repository Last metadata expiration check: 1:12:45 ago on Mon 08 Jan 2018 10:57:23 AM PST. Package libiio-debuginfo-0.12-1.fc27.x86_64 is already installed, skipping. Dependencies resolved. Nothing to do. Complete! Expected results: dnf suggests to install libiio-debugsource Additional info: If both libiio-debuginfo and libiio-debugsource are uninstalled, "dnf debuginfo-install libiio-debugsource" prints: Installing: libiio-debuginfo Installing weak dependencies: libiio-debugsource A package explicitly requested on the command line should not be called a dependency, weak or otherwise. It's counterintuitive that the user should remove the debuginfo package to install the debugsource package.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life. On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '27'. 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 27 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.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 30 development cycle. Changing version to '30.
