Thank you, without my knowledge my machine had acquired the modular version of gimp, and wouldn't upgrade. I had to debug and finally remove the gimp module and other things to be able to do a system upgrade. The experience was annoying. Not your fault, I think modularity is still very immature when it comes to upgrades, so it shouldn't be used yet for very popular packages of Fedora Workstation IMO. > Question is, How can I set new RPM build to be the replacement for > the modular one? > Especially, is it possible, when someone with modular gimp installed > types `dnf upgrade gimp`, that command will remove modular gimp and > installs new RPM instead? Even if modularity does not allow this I hope a scriptlet can be generated that could deal with this as a final module upgrade... > > Regards > > Josef Ridky > Software Engineer > Core Services Team > Red Hat Czech, s.r.o. > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org -- Simo Sorce RHEL Crypto Team Red Hat, Inc _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
