  • RHEL8: mariadb-libs filtered out by modular filtering

    Posted on

    Hi all,

    I have a problem on RHEL8 that the RPM mariadb-libs is filtered out by modular filtering:
    - One RPM requires MySQL-python
    - MySQL-python needs libmysqlclient.so.18, which is part of the RPM mariadb-libs
    - The RPM mariadb-libs in version 5.5.56-2, epoch:1 is available in one of our repositories (which are enabled and accessible of course...)
    - By trying to install our RPM chain (with requiring MySQL-python, which furtheron requires mariadb-libs) the RPM mariadb-libs cannot be installed as it is filtered out by modular filtering.

    I currently feel that the problem is that the exisiting mariadb-libs 5.5.56 has Epoch=1 whereas the mariadb-* RPMs in the stream rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms run on Epoch=3.
    Unfortunately there is no RPM mariadb-libs with Epoch=3 available.

    Does anyone has an idea how to resolve this issue?

    Thanks & best regards,
    Ruediger
