Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): AlmaLinux 8.6 Beta


How reproducible:
Occurs with every dnf udpate when ansible is installed and when ansible-core cannot be installed


Steps to Reproduce:
1. remove ansible sudo dnf remove ansible
2. install ansible core and community collection sudo dnf install ansible-collection-community-general and install fails due to version conflict and receive conflict listed below

3. try install insalling ansible with community collection sudo dnf install ansible-collection-community-general

Actual results:
output from step 2:

Error: 
 Problem: package ansible-collection-community-general-3.8.6-1.el8.noarch requires (ansible >= 2.9.0 or ansible-base > 2.10.0), but none of the providers can be installed
  - package ansible-core-2.12.2-2.el8.x86_64 obsoletes ansible < 2.10.0 provided by ansible-2.9.27-1.el8.noarch
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package ansible-collection-community-general-3.8.6-1.el8.noarch
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package ansible-2.9.27-1.el8.noarch
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)


output from step 4:
Error: 
 Problem: package ansible-collection-community-general-3.8.6-1.el8.noarch requires (ansible >= 2.9.0 or ansible-base > 2.10.0), but none of the providers can be installed
  - package ansible-core-2.12.2-2.el8.x86_64 obsoletes ansible < 2.10.0 provided by ansible-2.9.27-1.el8.noarch
  - conflicting requests
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Expected results:
install and updates completes successfully with ansible-core or ansible installed and community general collection like in fedora

We are aware of this issue. As a temporary workaround, you can install ansible-collection-community-general from epel8-next.

Comment 2 tiny6996 2022-05-07 18:43:35 UTC
