Description Rik Theys 2022-07-15 15:39:10 UTC
Description of problem:

The ddd package in epel9 depends on xclipboard, but xclipboard is not available in EPEL9, so it can not be installed.

Unless xclipboard is really required, maybe the dependency can be relaxec for the EPEL9 package?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ddd-3.3.12-41.el9.src.rpm

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to install ddd package from EPEL9
2.
3.

Actual results:
# dnf --enablerepo esat-epel-testing install ddd
Last metadata expiration check: 0:37:37 ago on Fri 15 Jul 2022 04:57:20 PM CEST.
Error: 
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides xclipboard needed by ddd-3.3.12-41.el9.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)


Expected results:
ddd package can be installed
