In Fedora 43, gnupg2 was split into multiple packages. To ensure existing installs don't loose functionality, "Obsoletes" were added to gnupg2-scdaemon, so that the package gets installed on an upgrade. However, the version in the obsoletes is "2.4.8-2", while F42 received 2.4.9-1 recently, which breaks the upgrade and leaves the user without an installed scdaemon. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install f42 with latest updates and gnupg2 2. upgrade to f43 Actual Results: gnupg2-scdaemon is not installed Expected Results: gnupg2-scdaemon is installed Additional Information: https://chaos.social/@zhenech/115898279421891587
Thank you for the report! Wondering what would be the best solution for this now given that all the Fedora versions have gnupg2-2.4.9-1 now :/ I guess that given that the only fedora not having this is f42, we could do something like this for f43+: %global split_min_version 2.4.8-2.fc43 but I did not test it yet. Fabio, what do you think?
> %global split_min_version 2.4.8-2.fc43 Eh ... why would this help? Adding a suffix won't change the lexicographic ordering (2.4.9 still !< 2.4.8whateverfollowshere). Maybe (**maybe**) setting this would work (until the *next* f42 update, of course): %global split_min_version 2.4.9-1.fc42.1
Sorry, I obviously meant 2.4.9-1.fc42 but was too fast writing. And indeed it would need to change the obsoletes conditions to `Obsoletes: gnupg2 <= %{split_min_version}` Your suggestion of having the .1 without the need to change the Obsoletes conditions so I will likely go ahead with that one later today. I hope we will not need to update the Fedora 42 anymore, but if we do, I will make sure this will be up to date.
Assuming Fedora 42 would never get a version before Fedora 43, what about: %global split_min_version %{version}-1.fc42 Obsoletes: gnupg2 <= %{split_min_version} or %global split_min_version %{version}-1.fc42.1 Obsoletes: gnupg2 < %{split_min_version} Wait, no, that would also trigger on gnupg2-2.4.9-1.fc43.x86_64 to gnupg2-2.4.10-1.fc43.x86_64, as 2.4.9-1.fc43 < 2.4.10-1.fc42. Just don't update gnupg in f42 anymore ;)
