Description Fedora Fails To Install 2026-03-29 13:58:36 UTC
Hello,

Please note that this comment was generated automatically by https://forge.fedoraproject.org/releng/tooling/src/branch/main/release-process/bug-filing/follow-policy/follow_policy.py
If you feel that this output has mistakes, please open an issue at https://forge.fedoraproject.org/releng/tickets/issues

Your package (claws-mail) Fails To Install in Fedora 45:

can't install claws-mail:
  - nothing provides gdk-pixbuf2-modules-extra(x86-64) needed by claws-mail-4.4.0-1.fc45.x86_64
  
If you know about this problem and are planning on fixing it, please acknowledge so by setting the bug status to ASSIGNED. If you don't have time to maintain this package, consider orphaning it, so maintainers of dependent packages realize the problem.


If you don't react accordingly to the policy for FTBFS/FTI bugs (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/), your package may be orphaned in 8+ weeks.


P.S. The data was generated solely from koji buildroot, so it might be newer than the latest compose or the content on mirrors. To reproduce, use the koji/local repo only, e.g. in mock:

    $ mock -r fedora-45-x86_64 --config-opts mirrored=False install claws-mail


P.P.S. If this bug has been reported in the middle of upgrading multiple dependent packages, please consider using side tags: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Updates_Policy/#updating-inter-dependent-packages

Thanks!

Comment 1 Michael Schwendt 2026-03-29 21:36:25 UTC
This is caused by gdk-pixbuf2 adding Obsoletes/Provides for gdk-pixbuf2-modules-extra, immediate removal of that package from the repo, then withdrawing the Obsoletes/Provides pair because of breaking dependencies (like XSane and Claws Mail):

All subpackages of a package against which this bug was filled are now installable or removed from Fedora 45.

Thanks for taking care of it!
