Description of problem: gcc-epel is version 8.5.0-19.el8 while in the main repos gcc is 8.5.0-20.el8. Due to the difference in version numbers, I can't install gcc-gnat because it conflicts with gcc Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 8.5.0-19.el8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo dnf install gcc 2. sudo dnf install gcc-gnat Actual results: gcc-gnat is not installed (missing libgnat.so, etc) Expected results: gcc-gnat is installed Additional info:
FEDORA-EPEL-2023-2462751ea6 has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 8. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-2462751ea6
FEDORA-EPEL-2023-2462751ea6 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 8 testing repository.

Thanks for the update. I can confirm that this has fixed the issue. I did have to specifically request libgnat-8.5.0 and gcc-gnat-8.5.0 to be installed. If I use `dnf install gcc-gnat` it will tell me that `Package gcc-8.5.0-20.el8.x86_64 is already installed.` similarly for libgnat and libgcc. Is this normal behaviour? Thanks, Haydn
> Is this normal behaviour? Unfortunately, yes: $ rpm -q --obsoletes gcc gcc-gnat < 8.5.0-20.el8 gcc-java < 8.5.0-20.el8 libcilkrts libcilkrts-static $ $ rpm -q --obsoletes libgcc libgcj < 8.5.0-20.el8 libgcj-devel < 8.5.0-20.el8 libgcj-src < 8.5.0-20.el8 libgnat < 8.5.0-20.el8 libmudflap libmudflap-devel libmudflap-static $ Red Hat decided to retire the support for Ada/GNAT with RHEL 8 and the observed behaviour seems to be part of their in-line upgrade path for at least RHEL 7 to 8.
