I'm confused by the Requires for redhat-lsb-core.
According to "dnf repoquery --requires redhat-lsb-core" there is no requirement for
esmtp. But according to "dnf repoquery --whatrequires esmtp", redhat-lsb-core does
require esmtp.
Well, somebody may have answered this, however:
redhat-lsb-core has "Requires: /usr/sbin/sendmail" (according to repoquery).
esmtp is one of /usr/sbin/sendmail providers.
# dnf repoquery -q --repo=koji-39 --whatprovides /usr/sbin/sendmail
esmtp-0:1.2-21.fc38.x86_64
exim-0:4.96-8.fc38.x86_64
msmtp-0:1.8.23-2.fc39.x86_64
opensmtpd-0:6.8.0p2-11.fc38.x86_64
postfix-2:3.7.4-1.fc38.x86_64
sendmail-0:8.17.1-8.fc38.x86_64
ssmtp-0:2.64-32.fc38.x86_64
So to satisfy "/usr/sbin/sendmail" Requires, esmtp can be chosen (and some
other candidate may be chosen).
I don't understand that. Why are some users getting esmtp when they install
KiCad, yet I didn't get esmtp when I installed KiCad?
Perhaps "dnf install KiCad" will choose esmtp when searching for
"/usr/sbin/sendmail" provider, on the other hand
if you have already installed some other packages which provides
"/usr/sbin/sendmail", installing KiCad won't install
esmtp additionally.
A bigger question would be how to restructure OS information gathering, since
redhat-lsb-core does pull in a lot of stuff, but that is a question for another
day...
