Description of problem: The supercollider-devel package cannot be installed together with pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit-devel Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install pipewire jack packages 2. try to install supercollider-devel 3. fails with unmet jack-audio-connection-kit-devel dependency due to conflicts with pipewire Actual results: I can't install supercollider-devel without specifically installing jack-audio-connection-kit and jack-audio-connection-kit-devel (and uninstalling the pipewire equivalent packages) Expected results: As pipewire is supposed to be compatible with jack I expect supercollider-devel to be installable with either. Additional info: This is due to a explicit dependency in the spec file: %package devel Summary: Development files for SuperCollider Requires: supercollider%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release} Requires: alsa-lib-devel Requires: avahi-devel Requires: boost-devel Requires: jack-audio-connection-kit-devel Requires: libsndfile-devel Requires: pkgconfig
What is the proper policy to follow here for dependencies? Two mutually exclusive packages that implement the same "thing": jack-audio-connection-kit-devel pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit-devel Something that depends on either, how do you write this in a spec file? Either of them should satisfy the dependency, right?
it would seem this fixes the problem (use pkgconfig(jack) for the dependency: %package devel Summary: Development files for SuperCollider Requires: supercollider%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release} Requires: alsa-lib-devel Requires: avahi-devel Requires: boost-devel Requires: pkgconfig(jack) Requires: libsndfile-devel Requires: pkgconfig
