Is there an rpm or urpmq query
that will highlight conflicts between installed packages on a system ?
For example, if I installed dkms-virtualbox and then installed
dkms-vboxadditions with --force, is there a query which would report
that these two are in conflict ?
good idea.
Also, it seems that when a conflict is reported, it should list the
applications (and versions) it finds to be in conflict.
It is _really_ frustrating to have these anonymous conflicts, when
rpm/urpm must know what it is finding in conflict.
I was hoping this was already possible. If it's not, I'll enter an
enhancement request. Could some rpm/urpmq guru confirm one way or the
other, please ?
I was thinking of installs in rpmdrake (under mdv).
Sometimes it says that a package can't be installed -- if I remember
correctly, because of conflicts -- but doesn't give the blocker.
If I try to install the package directly (from console or Nautilus)
often I get more info. Sometimes I have found circular
depends/conflicts, so I have had to use --force to work around the problem.
If it is an upgrade, sometimes uninstalling the old package (with
rpmdrake), then installing the new, works. (But it is not always
possible to uninstall without uninstalling a lot of other packages.)
