Install older version of package for a specific program

Ask Fedora

Hello,

I upgraded to F37, which uses the package libicu-71. However, the program Cernbox requires libicu-69:

Error: 
 Problem: package cernbox-client-2.11.1-8507.x86_64 requires ocqt51210-libQt5Core.so.5()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
  - package cernbox-client-2.11.1-8507.x86_64 requires ocqt51210-libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5)(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
  - package cernbox-client-2.11.1-8507.x86_64 requires ocqt51210-libQt5Core.so.5(Qt_5.12)(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
  - conflicting requests

  - nothing provides libicui18n.so.69()(64bit) needed by ocqt51210-libQt5Core5-5.12.10-25.3.x86_64
  - nothing provides libicuuc.so.69()(64bit) needed by ocqt51210-libQt5Core5-5.12.10-25.3.x86_64

Is there a way to install libicu-69 from F36 only for Cernbox?

Thanks in advance!

libicu is a pretty fundamental library.

Where are you getting cernbox-client from? You might need to see if there is a version of it for Fedora 37.

I get it from Install package cernbox-client, but there is now newer version at the moment.

Is it possible to somehow install libicu-69 isolated, only for Cernbox?

I don’t know of a way to add that version of libicu which would resolve those package dependencies.
