I think you can easy remove samba a gnuls after upgrade you can reinstall them with no issue.

aeperezt ( 2019-04-04 12:52:43 -0500 )edit

sounds stupid, but it's sooooooo true. Sometime you really need to deinstall something, just to reinstall it after the update again :D

rdtcustomercare ( 2019-04-04 13:43:22 -0500 )edit

I dont thing its possible as removing samba also brings gnome-shell and gnutls is not even possible as it removes systemd

patrickm ( 2019-04-04 17:18:06 -0500 )edit

Focusing on the "can't remove samba" of course you can: rpm -e --nodeps sambapackagename

dnf will remove all dependencies, but rpm does not need to. Kick it, make your update and anything that is missing will be reinstalled. ( in theory ofcourse)

Ran into this issue recently myself, and I was disappointed in myself. My first rule in troubleshooting is, always READ the error. I didn't for two days. :/

file /usr/lib64/samba/libMESSAGING-SEND-samba4.so from install of samba-libs-2:4.9.5-0.fc29.x86_64 conflicts with file from package samba-client-libs-2:4.9.4-1.fc29.x86_64

This error is a conflict (the same file location/name) between two different packages. Why would two different packages, with just differing versions, provide the same file?

Likely the function has been moved/consolidated into another package. In this case it appears that the file was previously provided by samba-client-libs and now is being provided by samba-libs.

Run 'yum remove samba-client-libs' (might want to stop samba first), then rerun your update. That error will be gone.

The remaining errors are due to you attempting to upgrade i686 packages with x86_64 packages. Here is a link that explains how to deal with those errors better than I would.

@linux.alder, nope, all the errors are from installed duplicate packages (gnutls as well as samba ones).

Counting @patrickm, you, one more person here, and myself -- I know of four people which had this problem with F29 in different times. It looks like some bug in dnf.
