EL9 Dependencies - JWT/DNS

[AndrewMRQuinn]

There looks to be a packaging issue with grommunio-admin-api-1.17.20 in the EL9 community repo that prevents DNF from installing it:

Error:
 Problem: cannot install the best update candidate for package grommunio-admin-api-1.17.19.3e9284d-15.2.noarch
  - nothing provides python3-PyJWT needed by grommunio-admin-api-1.17.20.959e6b1-26.2.noarch from grommunio
  - nothing provides python3-dnspython needed by grommunio-admin-api-1.17.20.959e6b1-26.2.noarch from grommunio

The RPM lists python3-PyJWT and python3-dnspython as required, but these don't match the EL9 package names python3-jwt and python3-dns.
I used rpmrebuild to modify the SPEC file on lines 67 & 70 and this installs fine using a local copy.

  Requires(post): openssl
  Requires:      polkit
- Requires:      python3-PyJWT
+ Requires:      python3-jwt
  Requires:      python3-argcomplete
  Requires:      python3-cryptography
- Requires:      python3-dnspython
+ Requires:      python3-dns
  Requires:      python3-flask
  Requires:      python3-isodate

I haven't noticed any issues as a result of making this change on my own system.

Yes, please remove the SUSE-isms from the RPM packages for RHEL (and clones) like suggested.

• python3-jwt lives in EPEL: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1969740
• python3-dns lives in BaseOS: https://kojihub.stream.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=67628

@jengelh As there is no progress on that issue here and also on https://community.grommunio.com/d/1932-opensuse-156-dependency-problem-with-grommunio-admin-api/12, I hope it's okay to ping you directly from here. We suspect in the current spec file for grommunio-admin-api a mix up of SuSE and RHEL package names for the dependencies:

Correct RHEL package names are:
python3-jwt
python3-dns

SuSE package names should be:
python3-PyJWT
python3-dnspython

On my RL9 box I see the error @AndrewMRQuinn mentioned in the description of this issue. These seem to be SuSE package names.

As this could be fixed within minutes, I hope you can change this.

bye
Daniel

Looks like the DNS dependency has been fixed, but the JWT one is still incorrect on the latest release

@jengelh Unfortunately this issue isn't resolved. The dependency name for RHEL9 is still invalid.

Issue is now fixed. Thanks!
