Problem:
Conflict between the “facter” dependency and the rubygem-facter RPM
Foreman and Proxy versions:
3.7.0
Foreman and Proxy plugin versions:
3.7.1
Distribution and version:
RHEL 8
Hello,
I need to install one RPM on my foreman server and this RPM requires “facter”
However the rubygem-facter provided by the forement repositorie does not provide “facter” but provided “rubygem(facter)”
So my dnf is looking for facter and find the facter RPM from the EPEL repo.
Problem it cannot install both because those two RPM want to install the file /usr/bin/facter
This is a homebrew RPM thal helps for management purpose, internal patching system etc.
I could ask them to add the OR operator for rubygem(facter) in the specfile.
If you could add Provides: facter
It will be also great.
Regards
What is the tool doing, is it calling facter the binary?
Then you could make the dependency /usr/bin/facter instead of facter or rubygem-facter, which would find the binary in either package.
