Hello, all: Now I've decided to write to devel@ mailing list to ask for help. Currently, 5 Live spins: * Fedora-Astronomy_KDE-Live-34-20210221.n.0 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=62419350 * Fedora-Scientific_KDE-Live-34-20210221.n.0 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=62419370 * Fedora-Security-Live-34-20210221.n.0 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=62419377 * Fedora-Cinnamon-Live-34-20210221.n.0 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=62419431 * Fedora-LXQt-Live-34-20210221.n.0 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=62419446 fail to be created due to the same bug: Bug 1925922 - dependency loop with harfbuzz confuses xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi installation?? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1925922 Background (as far as I know) With https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/EnableHarfBuzzInFreeType https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1906714 , on Fedora 34, freetype <=> harfbuzz depend on each other, causing dependency loop. Now this is causing a problem - xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi has %postin scriptlet, which calls /usr/bin/mkfontdir (which calls /usr/bin/mkfontscale) , which is in xorg-x11-font-utils , however at the time %postin scriptlet of xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi is to be executed, "freetype" binary rpm is not yet to be installed due to the dependency loop, which causes: ---------------------------------------------------------------- 09:54:12,742 INF packaging: Configuring (running scriptlet for): xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi-7.5-27.fc34.noarch 1611907303 d34990ca2d30c51a49e168a636361c94eb9ec4a4995ed5724c9aab2cea71ac1f 09:54:12,760 INF dnf.rpm: mkfontscale: error while loading shared libraries: libfreetype.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory warning: %post(xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi-7.5-27.fc34.noarch) scriptlet failed, exit status 127 09:54:12,761 ERR dnf.rpm: Error in POSTIN scriptlet in rpm package xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi ---------------------------------------------------------------- , which leads to live image creation failure for the above 5 spins. Now freetype / harfbuzz maintainers asks xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi maintainer to add some Requires(pre) dependency to "workaround" this issue - I wonder if this is the "right" solution, however at least some action is needed. Note that Fedora 34 beta freeze happens at 2021/Feb/23 14:00 UTC, so it is best that this issue can be resolved soon. So - please someone look at this?
