Provides problem on RockyLinux 8 #340

Closed thebaptiste closed 1 year ago

thebaptiste commented 1 year ago

Hello

I am using jasper-libs on RockyLinux 8.5 (64 bits) For some reason I would like to install jasper-libs by referencing the libjasper.so.4 library doing : yum install 'libjasper.so.4()(64bit)'

This kind of installation works for many packages

But it doesn't work for jasper-libs : No match for argument: libjasper.so.4()(64bit)

Yet jasper-libs provides libjasper.so.4()(64bit) : 

yum install jasper-libs
(...)
Installed:
  jasper-libs-2.0.28-3.el9.x86_64

rpm -q --provides jasper-libs
jasper-libs = 2.0.28-3.el9
jasper-libs(x86-64) = 2.0.28-3.el9
libjasper.so.4()(64bit)

I don't understand why it doesn't work, it should...

May be it's not your problem but a packaging problem in RockyLinux...

Regards

I'm not sure whether it is a packaging problem but for sure it's a problem that you need to ask your distribution.

I don't know either yum nor the details of RedHat/RockyLinux packaging. So I have no idea how yum works or is supposed to work in this case.
