In short, when compat-db "Provides: db4 = some-low-version", the "db4" packages with a higher version upgrades compat-db. Some background can be found here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/111071 It has effected multiple packages since FC =~ 1 Recently, Panu has mentioned that this "feature" in RPM will go away in a future release of RPM. But until then, don't use such virtual provides. They break. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
