Resolving duplicates in f36

Ask Fedora
1

I installed WineHQ on f36 (following the info here: Fedora - WineHQ Wiki) and evidently got duplicates with mesa:

[jackr@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf check
mesa-dri-drivers-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-dri-drivers-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
mesa-filesystem-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-filesystem-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
mesa-libEGL-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-libEGL-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
Error: Check discovered 3 problem(s)

I tried to resolve this via: sudo dnf remove --duplicates

[jackr@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf remove --duplicates
Last metadata expiration check: 1:41:33 ago on Sun 17 Jul 2022 05:26:39 PM CEST.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

It doesn’t resolve anything and apparently the command doesn’t work in f36…

[jackr@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf check
mesa-dri-drivers-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-dri-drivers-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
mesa-filesystem-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-filesystem-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
mesa-libEGL-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-libEGL-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
Error: Check discovered 3 problem(s)

The major problem is that I cannot update dnf…

[jackr@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf update

Error: transaction check vs depsolve:
mesa-filesystem(x86-32) is needed by (installed) libva-2.14.0-1.fc36.i686
mesa-filesystem(x86-32) = 22.1.3-3.fc36 is needed by (installed) mesa-dri-drivers-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
To diagnose the problem, try running: 'rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest'.
You probably have corrupted RPMDB, running 'rpm --rebuilddb' might fix the issue.
The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful transaction.
You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'.

Tried running running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest and rpm --rebuilddb

No luck…

Those listed duplicates are x86_64 and i686, not actually a duplicate.

[jackr@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf check
mesa-dri-drivers-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-dri-drivers-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
mesa-filesystem-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-filesystem-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686
mesa-libEGL-22.1.3-1.fc36.x86_64 is a duplicate with mesa-libEGL-22.1.3-3.fc36.i686

Notice that the i686 packages are a slightly different version than the x86_64 packages.

This type problem sometimes occurs when you use a 3rd party repo to do an install.
What is the output of dnf repolist?
What is the output of dnf list installed <package name> where you use each of those 3 package names? This will tell you where those packages were installed from. If the same named packages came from different repos then there often is a conflict.

I would recommend you remove the WineHQ packages, do the upgrade, then reinstall from winehq if needed. You also might consider doing the upgrade while excluding those 3 packages to avoid needing to remove them.

I ran
[jackr@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf update --exclude=“mesa-filesystem mesa-dri-drivers mesa-libEGL”

and it worked.

Just an FYI.
It seems that at the time you installed from winehq that those 3 packaged (x86_64 version) had not yet been updated in the fedora repo. I just did an update and they were upgraded to the 22.1.3-3 release as you already have for the i686 versions.

Maybe you could try sudo dnf distro-sync and see if that will bring those 3 packages up to the latest version.

The cause seems that installing from winehq pulled in the i686 version of the packages but failed to make certain the x86_64 versions were of a matching version. That seems a packaging error in the dependencies.

BTW, I took the liberty of adding the </> Preformatted text tags to your post above. It makes things easier to read and formatted as they were when you copied from your PC. Please use that method for all posts where you are inserting text copied from the screen.

I can update dnf now, … and after running sudo dnf distro-sync :

[jackr@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf list installed mesa-filesystem mesa-dri-drivers mesa-libEGL

Thanks a lot!
