Description Ian Mortimer 2019-12-16 01:27:25 UTC
Description of problem:
audacious package requires gnome-icon-theme but that package doesn't exist in EL8

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

3.10.1-3.el8

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.dnf install audacious
2.
3.

Actual results:
Error: 
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides gnome-icon-theme needed by audacious-3.10.1-3.el8.x86_64

Expected results:
audacious and dependencies install without errors.


Additional info:
Rebuilding the srpm with "Requires: gnome-icon-theme" removed from the spec file results in a package which builds and installs.   Adding "Requires: libcanberra-gtk2" to the spec file, ensures that depenency is installed to avoid a warning message when audacious starts.

Yes, this issue unfortunately exists because a non-audacious-package-maintainer decided to simply build audacious for EPEL 8 obviously without testing it and without talking to me as the audacious EPEL package maintainer.

Given I'm targeting audacious 4.0.x for EPEL 8 anyway, I will address this soon when bumping to 4.0.x.

I had a similar issue with gnome-icon-theme when I built gtkwave for EPEL-8. The dependency was only there to provide ownership of the %{_datadir}/icons/gnome/ directory and various other directories under that one, which my package installed files into. So what I did was to get rid of the dependency on gnome-icon-theme and own the directories I was using myself,
e.g. in the %files section:

%dir %{_datadir}/icons/gnome/
%dir %{_datadir}/icons/gnome/16x16/
%dir %{_datadir}/icons/gnome/16x16/mimetypes/
%{_datadir}/icons/gnome/16x16/mimetypes/gnome-mime-application-vnd.gtkwave-*.png
%dir %{_datadir}/icons/gnome/32x32/
%dir %{_datadir}/icons/gnome/32x32/mimetypes/
%{_datadir}/icons/gnome/32x32/mimetypes/gnome-mime-application-vnd.gtkwave-*.png
