Description bugreports2005 2024-01-10 08:44:20 UTC
Description of problem:

texmaker-1:5.1.3-5.el9.x86_64 requires libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5.15.3_PRIVATE_API)(64bit)
qt5-qtbase-5.15.9-7.el9.x86_64 provides libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5_PRIVATE_API)(64bit) instead


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

texmaker-1:5.1.3-5.el9.x86_64


How reproducible:

Should be

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install up-to-date RHEL9.3, add EPEL
2. Unless already installed, yum install qt5-qtbase at least
3. yum install texmaker

Actual results:

It wants to downgrade qt5-qtbase (and along with it maybe gnomeplatform qt5-qtbase-common qt5-qtbase-gui qt5-qtdeclarative qt5-qtsvg qt5-qtwayland qt5-qtx11extras qt5-qtxmlpatterns) which may not even be possible due to other dependencies

Expected results:

texmaker installs and works with the current components

Comment 3 Adam 2024-01-16 16:13:19 UTC
The spec file needs to be less specific on a QT5 lib.

Change:
libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5.15.3_PRIVATE_API)(64bit)
To:
libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5_PRIVATE_API)(64bit)


You can manually change the spec-file with rpmrebuild -enp texmaker-5.1.3-5.el9.x86_64.rpm to be less specific as qt5-qtbase doesn't provide a versioned provides for the Private_API. This then successfully installs and works.

Just to be clear - this requires is automatically added by the build system, the texmaker spec does not have it.  And since it is a private api, it can change at any time, which is why it is a specific dep.  The real fix would be for texmaker to not make use of private Qt apis, but I have no idea what that might be.
