f40->f42 upgrade conflict: /usr/sbin/rhino vs /usr/bin/rhino

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Doing an upgrade, following the recommended doco.

At the step
	$ sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=42 --setopt=keepcache=1
(even with --allowerasing)

I get

2025-05-17T21:13:37+1000 CRITICAL Error: Transaction test error:
  file /usr/bin/rhino conflicts between attempted installs of rhino-1.7.14-14.fc42.noarch and nut-2.8.3-1.fc42.x86_64

Turns out both packages contain a file with this name but not in the same directory.

Is this a bin vs sbin artifact?
	the nut   package includes /usr/sbin/rhino
		Driver for Brazilian Microsol RHINO UPS equipment
	the rhino package includes /usr/bin/rhino
		invokes the JavaScript shell for running scripts in batch mode or interactive

I decided to remove the package 'rhino' which did not remove anything else (so nobody needs it?).
maybe other programs need /usr/bin/rhino but fail to declare the dependency. I can add rhino later if required.

I need 'nut' and do not want to remove it.

What is the correct way to resolve this problem?
Can I leave rhino installed but exclude it from the upgrade?

Tomorrow I will do the upgrade reboot and hope all goes well.
