Conflicting requests when installing wemeet

Ask Fedora

I’m using ‘sudo dnf install ./wemeet-3.19.0.401-2.x86_64.rpm’ to install wemeet and the system claims

Error: 
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides liblber-2.4.so.2(OPENLDAP_2.4_2)(64bit) needed by wemeet-3.19.0.401-2.x86_64 from @commandline
  - nothing provides libldap_r-2.4.so.2(OPENLDAP_2.4_2)(64bit) needed by wemeet-3.19.0.401-2.x86_64 from @commandline
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)

I have liblber-2.4.so.2 and libldap_r-2.4.so.2 in ‘/usr/lib64/’. What’s the problem?

Check the output:

rpm -q -f --provides /usr/lib64/liblber-2.4.so.2
rpm -q -f --provides /usr/lib64/libldap_r-2.4.so.2

The outputs are
$ rpm -q -f --provides /usr/lib64/liblber-2.4.so.2
liblber-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
liblber-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
libldap-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
libldap-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
libldap_r-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
libldap_r-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
libslapi-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
libslapi-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
openldap-compat = 2.6.6-1.fc39
openldap-compat(x86-64) = 2.6.6-1.fc39

and

$ rpm -q -f --provides /usr/lib64/libldap_r-2.4.so.2
liblber-2.4.so.2()(64bit)
liblber-2.4.so.2()(64bit)

libldap_r-2.4.so.2()(64bit)

libslapi-2.4.so.2()(64bit)

openldap-compat = 2.6.6-1.fc39
openldap-compat(x86-64) = 2.6.6-1.fc39

It looks like a hard-coded dependency on a specific OpenLDAP version.
You can bypass RPM dependency check like this:

sudo rpm --nodeps -i /path/to/package.rpm

Or consider using the Flatpak variant:
Wemeet | Flathub

OK. I’ll try flatpak variant. Thank you very much.
