Description of problem: The upgrade is blocked because of a dozen conflicts like this one: file /usr/bin/debuginfo-install from install of dnf-utils-2.1.5-1.fc27.noarch conflicts with file from package yum-utils-1.1.31-513.fc27.noarch Currently I have yum-utils installed, but not dnf-utils, which is being installed as a dependence. Neither --skip-broken nor --best (nor both) help---no packages go in at the moment. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-utils-1.1.31-513.fc27.noarch How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf -y update Actual results: The upgrade is blocked because of a dozen conflicts like this one: file /usr/bin/debuginfo-install from install of dnf-utils-2.1.5-1.fc27.noarch conflicts with file from package yum-utils-1.1.31-513.fc27.noarch Expected results: successful update
It seems to me that fedora-upgrade pulls in dnf-utils, so the workaround is: dnf -y update --exclude=fedora-upgrade I kind-of guessed this---is there a systematic way of finding out which package causes similar file conflicts? From the error message I can infer dnf-utils is to blame, but how do I find out which package pulls it in as a dependency? I tried repoquery, but it's unfriendly and uninformative: ' repoquery whatrequires dnf-utils Yum-utils package has been deprecated, use dnf instead. See 'man yum2dnf' for more information. dnf-utils-0:2.1.5-1.fc27.noarch '

*** Bug 1543157 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Ref https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1543157 Other packages in Fedora 27 like lpf depends on yum-utils. Then you cannot have both fedora-upgrade and lpf installed on the same machine. All packages should be updated to used dnf-utils. Kjell
I think we cannot do much here. Both packages provides same files. In fedora f30, there will be only dnf-utils.
This is broken again. Shouldn't dnf-utils obsolete or provide yum-utils?
