Description David Ward 2015-05-15 23:23:11 UTC 
Bug 1203385 updated the linux-firmware package for Fedora 20, which still has the cx18-firmware package. Now there is a conflict when trying to update linux-firmware:

Transaction check error:
  file /usr/lib/firmware/v4l-cx23418-apu.fw from install of linux-firmware-20150410-47.gitec89525b.fc20.noarch conflicts with file from package cx18-firmware-20080628-8.noarch
  file /usr/lib/firmware/v4l-cx23418-cpu.fw from install of linux-firmware-20150410-47.gitec89525b.fc20.noarch conflicts with file from package cx18-firmware-20080628-8.noarch
  file /usr/lib/firmware/v4l-cx23418-dig.fw from install of linux-firmware-20150410-47.gitec89525b.fc20.noarch conflicts with file from package cx18-firmware-20080628-8.noarch


As a result it has broken pungi's ability to compose a Fedora 20 image from scratch:

template command error in runtime-install.tmpl:
  run_pkg_transaction
  YumTestTransactionError: Test Transaction Errors:   file /usr/lib/firmware/v4l-cx23418-apu.fw conflicts between attempted installs of linux-firmware-20150410-47.gitec89525b.fc20.noarch and cx18-firmware-20080628-8.noarch

(I've already tried explicitly excluding the cx18-firmware package in the kickstart file, but it is getting pulled in during a later stage.)

Should you use 'Conflicts: cx18-firmware' in the linux-firmware package?

or rather than Conflicts,

Obsoletes: cx18-firmware < 20080628-9

A patch with this change is attached for the linux-firmware package git repository. I tested that this resolves the issues with both yum system updates and pungi composes.

Actually cx18-firmware-20080628-9 exists in Koji for Fedora 21 (during development), so it is probably better to use

Obsoletes: cx18-firmware < 20080628-10
Comment 3 Fred Houweling 2015-05-16 23:45:41 UTC 
I can confirm that the transaction error on my Fedora 20 server existed as follows:
Transaction check error:
  file /usr/lib/firmware/v4l-cx23418-apu.fw from install of linux-firmware-20150410-47.gitec89525b.fc20.noarch conflicts with file from package cx18-firmware-20080628-8.noarch
  file /usr/lib/firmware/v4l-cx23418-cpu.fw from install of linux-firmware-20150410-47.gitec89525b.fc20.noarch conflicts with file from package cx18-firmware-20080628-8.noarch
  file /usr/lib/firmware/v4l-cx23418-dig.fw from install of linux-firmware-20150410-47.gitec89525b.fc20.noarch conflicts with file from package cx18-firmware-20080628-8.noarch

I resolved it by running:

yum remove cx18-firmware.noarch

A subsequent 'yum update' then succeeded.
Comment 4 David Ward 2015-05-17 15:04:59 UTC 
@Fred: that is a workaround for an installed system, but using pungi to compose an ISO image is still broken because of this issue. It will try to pull in both packages, even if you explicity exclude cx18-firmware in the kickstart script. An update to the linux-firmware package is still needed to address this.
Comment 5 David Ward 2015-05-17 15:19:05 UTC 
@Fred: I expect that network installations will fail because of this issue as well.
Comment 6 Josh Boyer 2015-05-21 13:38:57 UTC 
Thanks for the patch.  I had to tweak it slightly but I've added the conflicts to the spec on all branches.  An update will be coming shortly.
