Q: unwind requires libc-devel, provided by which package in centos 8.2?

[Haroldll]

When installing the latest version of ganesha, the os reported an error:

1.177 Error:
1.177  Problem: conflicting requests
1.177   - nothing provides libc-devel needed by nfs-ganesha-utils

I found the corresponding code：

%if %{with unwind}
%if ( 0%{?rhel} && 0%{?rhel} < 8 )
Requires: libc6-dev
%else
Requires: libc-devel
%endif
%if ( 0%{?suse_version} )
Requires: glibc-devel
%endif
%endif

In centos 8.2, Requires is libc-devel, but I don't find this dependency in my os, only the glibc-devel provided by the glibc-devel-2.28 package is seen.
So, may I ask which rpm package provides libc-devel in centos 8.2?
Also, why is it nfs-ganesha-utils that needs this dependency?

@Haroldll please provide your specific nfs-ganesha version use yum.

@Haroldll please provide your specific nfs-ganesha version use yum.

nfs-ganesha version is 6-dev.11.
nothing provides libc-devel needed by nfs-ganesha-utils-6-dev.11.el8.x86_64

How exactly did you install? With dnf install -y ...? Or with rpm -I ... ? Packages I presume you built from source?

Yes, build the rpm packages from source and then use rpm -ivh ... command to install

nfs-ganesha-5.7-2.el8 is fine, but this version contains no modifications: 158f395

ok. you only build rpm by yourself.

[kalebskeithley]

If you're going to use rpm -ivh ... to install, then you have to install the dependencies yourself.

Or you could use dnf install ..., (or yum install ...) instead, which will automatically install any required dependencies.

If you're coming from the SUSE world, dnf/yum are analogous to zypper.

glibc-devel is new better version than libc-devel. nfs-ganesha-utils use some c calling, it maybe dependency with libc. directly use glibc-devel as soon as.

yum can't find this dependency either.

@Haroldll cloud you please share your spec, let me testing on my box. I suggest directly update spec to use glibc-devel replace libc-devel. the spec is out of date on centos8

My spec is the community source code, unmodified, and I also think that libc-devel should be glibc-devel, since glibc-devel doesn't report dependency errors.

agree with your options. this is bug.

I don't know where the author of that change got those package names from.

I'd say that, across the board: rhel, centos, fedora, and suse, it should just be glibc-devel. Even on centos7 and rhel7. Probably even on rhel6/centos6, although I can't check. Looking back through Red Hat's build system there was a glibc-devel on rhel6 too.

I seriously doubt that the nfs-ganesha.spec file you have comes from the SUSE community.
