Comment 1 Lewis Smith 2019-11-15 20:37:03 CET

See also bug 25698, which contains this problem but concerns kernel panics on shutdown subsequent to thu update batch which included this pkg.
This bug is not universal, since the update - which typically involved:
- cpio-2.13-1.mga7.x86_64
- fribidi-1.0.5-2.1.mga7.x86_64
- lib64fribidi0-1.0.5-2.1.mga7.x86_64
- lib64javascriptcore-gir4.0-2.26.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- lib64javascriptcoregtk4.0_18-2.26.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- lib64webkit2gtk-gir4.0-2.26.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- lib64webkit2gtk4.0_37-2.26.2-1.mga7.x86_64
- libfribidi0-1.0.5-2.1.mga7.i586
- python2-numpy-1.16.3-1.mga7.x86_64
- python3-numpy-1.16.3-1.mga7.x86_64
- timezone-2019c-1.mga7.x86_64
- timezone-java-2019c-1.mga7.noarch
- webkit2-2.26.2-1.mga7.x86_64
(from https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25698#c7)
has clearly happened elsewhere without problem; my own system included.

webkit2 has no registered maintainer, so assigning this globally; and CC'ing Luigi as a past committer.

Comment 2 Jani Välimaa 2019-11-17 09:54:07 CET

It's because there's an error in obsoletes.

http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/updates/7/webkit2/current/SPECS/webkit2.spec?revision=1458368&view=markup#l80

We don't have webkit2gtk3-plugin-process-gtk2, but webkit2-plugin-process-gtk2. I'll push a fix for it.

Comment 3 Nicolas Salguero 2019-11-19 09:12:04 CET

Suggested advisory:
========================

Updated webkit2 packages fix a packaging problem:

The obsolete package is not webkit2gtk3-plugin-process-gtk2 but webkit2-plugin-process-gtk2.  That packaging issue leads to a conflict that prevents dnf from updating webkit2.

Created attachment 11369 [details]
List of installed packages

Ran a full # dnf upgrade with updates_testing* enabled. It works fine.
That is a test of the upgrade itself, not of its components.
