I have a strange situation on Leap 15.5 I am trying to install a number of packages (rpmbuild, yast2-installation) and have a problem with gzip. Or more accurately how is seems to be installed. I have installed kmod, which in turn installs suse-module-tools. So far ok. The problem is that kmod/suse-module-tools seems to want to install busybox-gzip instead of the standard gzip package. That provides:
rpm -ql busybox-gzip-1.35.0-150400.4.5.1.noarch /bin/gunzip /bin/gzip /bin/zcat /usr/bin/gunzip /usr/bin/gzip /usr/bin/uncompress /usr/bin/zcat /usr/bin/zgrep /usr/bin/zless /usr/bin/zmore
When I try to install one of the packages I need, I get this: Problem: the to be installed yast2-installation-4.5.17-150500.3.3.1.noarch requires 'gzip', but this requirement cannot be provided not installable providers: gzip-1.10-150200.10.1.x86_64[Leap_15.5] gzip-1.10-150200.10.1.x86_64[openSUSE_-_OSS] Solution 1: deinstallation of busybox-gzip-1.35.0-150400.4.5.1.noarch Solution 2: do not install yast2-installation-4.5.17-150500.3.3.1.noarch Solution 3: break yast2-installation-4.5.17-150500.3.3.1.noarch by ignoring some of its dependencies kmod/suse-module-tools has blocked installing the standard gzip package: Problem: the installed busybox-gzip-1.35.0-150400.4.5.1.noarch conflicts with 'gzip' provided by the to be installed gzip-1.10-150200.10.1.x86_64 Solution 1: deinstallation of busybox-gzip-1.35.0-150400.4.5.1.noarch Solution 2: do not install gzip-1.10-150200.10.1.x86_64 Both kmod/suse-module-tools and are from: Distribution: SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 I don't see that I am enabling any repos that should change this. And even if I did, why is kmod/suse-module-tools using busybox? Although I could probably work past this, I think it would mess up when I next tried to do an update. And I am also trying to get this all to work in a KIWI-generated OEM Leap 15.5 installer where it must just work. Anyone else see this dependency on busybox-gzip? It's a show stopper re my KIWI build. -- Roger Oberholtzer
