Description of problem: subpackage texlive-merriweather can't be installed from the RPM in the repos Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): texlive-merriweather-9:svn56365-32.fc32 How reproducible: seems consistently Steps to Reproduce: 1. have old texlive installed, including e.g. texlive-merriweather-9:svn52380-29.fc32.noarch 2. dnf upgrade Actual results: Running transaction Preparing : 1/1 Upgrading : texlive-merriweather-9:svn56365-32.fc32.noarch 1/2 Error unpacking rpm package texlive-merriweather-9:svn56365-32.fc32.noarch Failed: texlive-merriweather-9:svn52380-29.fc32.noarch texlive-merriweather-9:svn56365-32.fc32.noarch Error: Transaction failed Expected results: upgrade to texlive-merriweather-9:svn56365-32.fc32.noarch Additional info: It might be specific to a bad copy on some repo. I normally use a local mirror rsynced from rsync.mirrorservice.org, but with dnf so improved from yum, I can't see which mirror it's connecting to when I exclude the local mirror copies. But both give the same result.
Ah, I found the download source in dnf.librepe.log, finally. I've downloaded it from http://mirror.siena.edu/fedora/linux/updates/32/Everything/x86_64/Packages/t/texlive-merriweather-svn56365-32.fc32.noarch.rpm & https://ewr.edge.kernel.org/fedora-buffet/fedora/linux/updates/32/Everything/x86_64/Packages/t/texlive-merriweather-svn56365-32.fc32.noarch.rpm so far. Both failed, in addition to the mirrorservice.org copy.
No, I don't think this is a bad download. With some of the OTF fonts in texlive, I make symlinks to /usr/share/fonts/ so that they can be exposed to the rest of the system. I only do this for fonts which are not packaged in Fedora, but for merriweather, I missed that "sorkintype-merriweather-fonts" is in Fedora. The reason you hit this error is because RPM does not like trying to put down a symlink where a directory is (or vice-versa), and that happens if you have sorkintype-merriweather-fonts installed. I'm fixing this in -33.
