Description Micah Abbott 2023-05-19 21:06:09 UTC
The help text for `--whatconflicts` appears incorrect; it looks like a copy/paste of the help text for `--whatrequires`

# rpm -q rpm
rpm-4.16.1.3-22.el9.x86_64

# rpm --help | grep -A1 whatconflicts
      --whatconflicts                query/verify the package(s) which require
                                     a dependency
# rpm --help | grep -A1 whatrequires
      --whatrequires                 query/verify the package(s) which require
                                     a dependency

Thanks for the report. Fixed upstream at https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/commit/03525592c944957f3b7b200b7daeb9f615cdcde7, whether it's worth fixing in RHEL (due to the amount of process involved) is a separate question.
