Install fails if Remember the Milk is installed as well

evanleck

I have Remember the Milk installed as well and there's apparently some kind of conflict when I try to install 1Password. I've run sudo dnf clean all to remove caches and it still fails. Below is the output of trying to run the install from dnf.

$ sudo dnf install 1password

Thanks so much for taking a look!

Hi @evanleck

Thanks for writing in to let us know about this. You are not the only one seeing this, here's another customer that reported the same issue here with VSCodium. Apparently, according to the VSCodium's team, you can just remove the conflicting files in /usr/lib that dnf complained about and try again, it should fix it.

It sounds like DNF didn't clean up the files? Maybe next time try doing this: dnf clean all and see if it'd help.

evanleck

Hey @Blake, thanks for the info on that fix!

I already did try running dnf clean all and it didn't help, unfortunately. I suspect they're right that you can remove the files because they appear to be related to debugging, at least according to this StackExchange question. There are a few bits of documentation that I found that may be relevant:

• https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureBuildId
• https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ParallelInstallableDebuginfo

Hmm.. it looks like this may be leaning more towards something we need to correct on our end, since it's going to involve changing how the rpm is built.

I don't have any specifics just yet, but know that me and my team are certainly looking into this. 😊

evanleck

@Blake thanks! It does appear to be related to how the RPM is built, and I've found similar conflicts when installing Electron-based applications:

• https://github.com/Zettlr/Zettlr/issues/1321
• https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/issues/212
• https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/issues/3051

This bit of documentation on build IDs may be useful as well, though I don't know how up-to-date it is: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/blob/4a9440006398646583f0d9ae1837dad2875013aa/macros.in#L506

Thanks for looking into it!

Blake

Thanks for including that @evanleck!

I'll definitely pass it along the team so we're getting eyes on all of the proper channels there. Expect an update here from me once things are resolved on our end of things. 💙
