Description Parag Nemade 2019-09-26 04:24:05 UTC
Description of problem:

Hi,
We have a toolbox package in Fedora since last six months now. This package provides /usr/bin/toolbox and many have started using it as development container on Fedora 31 Silverblue.

Then I think this golang-github-vmware-govmomi package came to Fedora and this also provides /usr/bin/toolbox so conflict started occurring. (sorry I can't find its package review bugzilla link)

Error: Transaction check error:
  file /usr/bin/toolbox from install of toolbox-0.0.14-1.fc31.noarch conflicts with file from package golang-github-vmware-govmomi-0.20.0-2.fc31.x86_64

I found this when I blindly used command "dnf install /usr/bin/toolbox" and tried running container but getting different error.

Then I guess I got something else binary so ran "dnf install toolbox" and got conflicts error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
golang-github-vmware-govmomi-0.20.0-2.fc31.x86_64
toolbox-0.0.14-1.fc31.noarch.rpm

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
conflicts and confuses existing toolbox package users if they attempt to install by "/usr/bin/toolbox"

Expected results:
both packages should not conflict to each other.
