Comment 1 Satish Balay 2026-03-12 18:30:15 UTC
for now, I'm removing texlive - to work-around this error.

Comment 2 Tom "spot" Callaway 2026-03-12 22:21:12 UTC
Valid, but you may be the only human to ever install texlive-newcommand-doc. :D

Nevertheless, a Provides/Obsoletes will resolve this.

Comment 3 Satish Balay 2026-03-13 01:09:44 UTC
I use: `dnf install texlive-scheme-full`

Comment 4 Tom "spot" Callaway 2026-03-13 15:13:09 UTC
Aha, I see why this failed, the old newcommand-doc had a longer version than the simplified svn##### version I'm using everywhere now, so the obsolete is too narrow. Fixing it in -4.
