I'm confused by the Requires for redhat-lsb-core. According to "dnf repoquery --requires redhat-lsb-core" there is no requirement for esmtp. But according to "dnf repoquery --whatrequires esmtp", redhat-lsb-core does require esmtp. Perhaps there is some sort of transitive requirement that the above commands don't show, but the curious thing is that I have redhat-lsb-core installed on my F37 machine, and that didn't pull in esmtp.
Please open a bug report , I'm reviewing redhat-lsb [1] , this package is so old that still called redhat ...
Anyone suggest another name ? https://pagure.io/redhat-lsb/commits/main
Why do I care? Well, KiCad now Recommends redhat-lsb-core to help with upstream bug reports (wx uses redhat-lsb-core to report OS info). Since I added "Recommends: redhat-lsb-core" to KiCad, some users are now apparently also getting esmtp, which they really don't need/want. I don't understand that. Why are some users getting esmtp when they install KiCad, yet I didn't get esmtp when I installed KiCad? A bigger question would be how to restructure OS information gathering, since redhat-lsb-core does pull in a lot of stuff, but that is a question for another day...
The problem is lsb specification it self is very outdated, last version is LSB 5.0, released June 3, 2015.
